Description
I was fortunate to speak to Gary Hamel about his forthcoming new book, Humanocracy.He believes that the single most empowering (and profitable) thing that businesses can do is eliminate their creeping bureaucracy.He talks about how increasingly organisations are paralysed with red tape and bureaucracy. The end result is that they can’t get anything done. There are some clear examples of this from the recent past. He characterises the Microsoft era under Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer as being one where opportunity after opportunity was passed because the organisation was so heavily bureaucratic.
