Malcolm Colman-Shearer - Satisfying needs by experimenting with networks & decentralized organizations
<p>Malcolm Colman-Shearer’s needs weren’t being met in his banking IT job in New Zealand, so he left to find an environment that was more socially oriented where relationships were important. Jumping from the safety and confinement of that corporate ship, he’s now leading the life of an entrepreneur. He’s a member of Enspiral, a worldwide collective of individuals who not only believe in, but practice, a new way of organizing; and is the founder of Optimi, where he really follows his meaning and purpose by assisting clients in optimizing their workflow.</p> <p>I respect his transparency and insights about the ups of downs of his journey with decentralized organizations. I love his optimism about how our current network experiments are raising consciousness about new ways to organize that will evolve to further empower people.</p> <p>Malcolm contrasts traditional environments vs collective networks using a rainforest vs corn field analogy. After we recorded this episode, I was in the Peruvian Amazon and had daily walks through its rainforest, observing its many micro-ecosystems. Malcolm’s analogy of an organizational network having the growth and death cycles of a rainforest resonates with me even more now that I’ve experienced the magic of the Peruvian rainforest.</p> <p><strong>About Malcolm Colman-Shearer</strong></p> <p><a href="https://www.inspiredteams.work/podcast" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/in/malcolm-colmanshearer/</a></p> <p>Optimi <a href="https://www.optimi.co.nz/" target="_blank">https://www.optimi.co.nz/</a></p> <p><strong>Resources mentioned:</strong></p> <p>Enspiral <a href="https://www.enspiral.com/" target="_blank">https://www.enspiral.com/</a></p> <p><a href="https://handbook.enspiral.com/" target="_blank">https://handbook.enspiral.com/</a></p> <p>Better Work Together - How the power of community can transform your business (book) <a href="https://betterworktogether.co/ " target="_blank">https://betterworktogether.co/ </a><a href="" target="_blank"> </a> Co-authored by Enspiral, a community of entrepreneurs experimenting at the edges of ownership, governance, decision making, resource sharing, and organisational design.</p> <p>GreatertThan <a href="https://www.greaterthan.works/ " target="_blank">https://www.greaterthan.works/ </a> Courses mentioned: Practical Self-Management Intensive and Thriving Networks</p> <p>Loomio https://www.loomio.org/</p> <p>Loomio Cooperative Handbook <a href="https://www.loomio.coop/" target="_blank">https://www.loomio.coop/</a></p> <p>The Handbook of Handbooks for Decentralised Organising <a href=" https://hackmd.io/@yHk1snI9T9SNpiFu2o17oA/Skh_dXNbE?type=view " target="_blank"> https://hackmd.io/@yHk1snI9T9SNpiFu2o17oA/Skh_dXNbE?type=view </a> a mega list of handbooks and toolkits for groups working without top-down management from social movements to workplaces open source for anyone to read, update, share.

Ella Morgulis - Life’s journey brings empathy, patience and gratitude
<p>Ella Morgulis practices empathy and patience as a life coach and practitioner of “PQ - Positive Intelligence and Mental Fitness.”</p> <p>She recounts her path from her early childhood in Odesa Ukraine, followed by her moves to Russia and Moldova, and the religious, cultural and educational “bumps in the road” she navigated along the way. She emigrated to San Francisco with her young daughter in the mid 1990’s to escape the bleak economy of that region.</p> <p>Ella’s perspective: there are many ways to consciously increase the positivity in our lives, empathy and patience enables a deeper connection with others, and asking for help from mentors gives us acceleration.</p> <p>The 70’s pop hit Walk a mile in my shoes by Joe South never rang truer.</p> <p><strong>About Ella Morgulis</strong></p> <p><a href="http://www.linkedin.com/in/ellamorgulis" target="_blank">www.linkedin.com/in/ellamorgulis</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.lifeenlightened.net/" target="_blank">https://www.lifeenlightened.net/</a></p> <p><strong>Resources mentioned:</strong></p> <p><a href="https://www.positiveintelligence.com/" target="_blank">https://www.positiveintelligence.com/</a></p> <p>Walk a mile in my shoes by Joe South <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=In4UDYxxqVU" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=In4UDYxxqVU</a></p>

John Thompson - Organizing for intrinsic motivation
<p>John Thompson of The PCO Group returns with his passion for unleashing intrinsic motivation, which has a critical role in the human state, and therefore plays out into a team and more broadly into an organization.</p> <p>When tapping into intrinsic motivation, there is “no difference between being a leader and being human” since every human has leadership within them. This principle is the foundation of John’s proposal of breaking apart the 3 roles of a traditional manager - subject matter expert, developing humans, and team organization.</p> <p>We cover designing for intrinsic motivation by splitting the manager (boss) role into three roles, how being bossless creates opportunities not threats, and having facilitators show up as bosses disappear.</p> <p><strong>About John Thompson</strong></p> <p><a href="http://www.linkedin.com/in/ijohnt" target="_blank">www.linkedin.com/in/ijohnt</a></p> <p>The PCO Group <a href="https://www.peoplecentricorg.com/" target="_blank">https://www.peoplecentricorg.com</a></p> <p><strong>Resources mentioned:</strong></p> <p>First, Let’s Fire All the Managers by Gary Hamel</p> <p><a href="https://hbr.org/2011/12/first-lets-fire-all-the-managers" target="_blank">https://hbr.org/2011/12/first-lets-fire-all-the-managers</a></p> <p>Doug Kirkpatrick <a href="https://dougkirkpatrick.com/" target="_blank">https://dougkirkpatrick.com/</a></p> <p>Beyond empowerment - are we ready for the self-managed organization? - Doug Kirkpatrick at TEDxChico <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ej4n3w4kMa4." target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ej4n3w4kMa4.</a></p> <p>The No-Limits Enterprise – Organizational Self-Management in the New World of Work by Doug Kirkpatrick <a href="https://www.amazon.com/No-Limits-Enterprise-Organizational-Self-Management-World/dp/1946633275" target="_blank">https://www.amazon.com/No-Limits-Enterprise-Organizational-Self-Management-World/dp/1946633275</a></p> <p>Sonja Robinson - International Leadership Coach <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/sonja-robinson-msc-93390b2/" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/in/sonja-robinson-msc-93390b2/</a> <a href="http://www.prime-coaching.com/" target="_blank">www.prime-coaching.com</a></p>
