HolacracyOne and Integral Europe present:

The Holacracy Experience

March 23, 2009

Nyenrode Business University, The Netherlands

Rarely do organizations live up to their full potential. Even our most progressive approaches to human organizationand management are often insufficient for navigating today’s complex and rapidly changing world.

What if we questioned our deepest assumptions about organizational design in light of the challenges and opportunities we face today? Could we transform our most fundamental approaches to organization to enable entirely new levels of agility, health, and results?

These questions are being asked by a growing number of organizational pioneers, and a compelling possibility is emerging. It’s called Holacracy.

About HolacracyTM
Holacracy is a complete system for organizational governance and management that honors conventional business fundamentals while integrating cutting-edge
transformative practices. With its unique structure and processes, Holacracy integrates the collective wisdom of people throughout the organization, while highlighting the needs of the organization distinct from those of the individuals within. The result is greater agility, innovation, transparency, and health; liberating the organization to live up to its full potential.
