In this episode of The Gary Hamel Series, we explore the principles laid out in ‘Humanocracy,’ a manifesto that argues for liberating human capabilities from the stranglehold of bureaucracy. We delve into practical strategies for creating more dynamic, innovation-driven organizations. Special guest, Gary Hamel, discusses the economic and social implications of bureaucratic systems and presents alternative management models exemplified by companies like Morningstar and Nucor. We also reflect on personal anecdotes and shared experiences that highlight the soul-crushing effects of traditional bureaucratic structures. Thank you to our sponsor, Kyndryl, for supporting this series focused on harnessing technology for smarter decisions and faster innovation.
