Publisher's Synopsis
What is a decentralized organization?
Today, an increasing number of leading businesses are moving away from their traditional hierarchical structure by giving their employees the power to make decisions for the company. While the term may be unfamiliar, the names of companies that are implementing forms of decentralization are well-known and highly regarded: Johnson & Johnson, Zappos, Toyota, Valve, and so many more.
In this book, you will learn what decentralized organizations are, how they operate, and how to succeed in this exciting and empowering new environment.
But where does Improvisational comedy fit in? Interestingly enough, both Improvisation and Decentralization utilize the same framework. By using the fundamentals of Improvisation the author derives the essential "rules" that will not only elevate your entire organization, but also your role within it.
After you read this book you will discover the answer to these questions:
- What is a decentralized organization and why are they growing in popularity?
- What is the intersection between improvisational acting and this form of organizational management? and,
- Why is decentralization the next revolution in business?
In this book, you will discover how decentralized businesses operate - and if you work at one, how you can get ahead. Use this book as a tool that will help you and your company thrive in this already ongoing business revolution.
