Liberating Organizations

This book is for those who want to generate more value for all stakeholders through their work in organizations.We propose that this can be accomplished through a resilient and sustainable workplace based on people's freedom, engagement and their taking of responsibility.The book is an investigation of the cold case of freedom in organizations, why is there so little of it? The result is a solution, a blueprint for a Liberating Organization - a Constitutional Organization where there is freedom under the rule of law - not the law of the ruler.We show how we got to the state we are in now with our organizations; why it is not ideal - primarily due to lack of engagement; what a better solution could be; and how to get there.Finally, once freedom is established, we offer some practical detailed principles and methods for sustaining it.
