To be be our best, do our best work, and be our most productive we all need 'autonomy, mastery and purpose' in our working lives;

Add to this, we have an evolutionary need to belong, to be social, and to be recognised for our contributions - regardless of age, experience, education, status, job title, and a host of other all to usual barriers to individual contribution being allowed, encouraged, or recognised.

These needs, when met, create an environment where we recognise and celebrate our interdependence to each, society and the planet.

Becoming a people positive business embeds these needs into all aspects of the culture and operational model. Recognising the unique individuality and 'super power' of every employee.

Our direct experience has shown us that one of the best ways to build a high-trust workplace is to transform from a traditional top-down hierarchy to one operating self-managing principles.

These are the core areas of mindset change that self-management thrives on;

We all know this one. Top-down, secrecy (and closed doors), strategy from a few that is done too you and not with you. This is an 'Organisation as a machine', where work was linear, narrow and required little flexibility of thought. Centralised control through power, control and fear. A closed value system.

A people-positive, self-managing, and sustainable organisation works with free flowing information from all stakeholders - your people, your community, society and nature. This is an 'Organisation as Nature', where work has ambiguity, is heuristic*, and works in feedback loops. Distributive control by nature. A shared value system.

These are hard mindsets to move into. If you would like to dig a little deeper we have further reading on our experience of transitioning to, and embedding, self-managing principles and some answers to the questions you might ask before beginning.
