Leadership

Joi Ito:

“[...] I definitely saw something special in these [...] leaders which reminded me of the leaders that Dee Hock described. They had strong ethics, were humble, were extremely sensitive of the needs of their community and lead more through coordination and management of processes than through exercise of authority.”

Joi Ito spricht hier nicht über emerging church Leiter, sondern über Open Source Leiter.

“This was in stark contract to some of the conversations I have had at various CEO forums where people talked about “human resources” as if they were cogs and seemed to feel that the CEO had some divine right to more money and more power. Again, I would add that there are a great number of exceptions in both groups, but generally speaking, the conversations with the open source leaders made me feel like I was seeing the future of organizations compared to my experience with CEOs of normal for-profit companies.”

Ich stelle immer wieder fest, dass emerging church derbe viel von den aktuellen Entwicklungen im Web und in der Web-Branche und im IT-Bereich allgemein lernen kann, weil hier viele Entwicklungen parallel laufen.

“I think that the Mozilla Foundation and the success of open source is a test and will be an example of a new kind of organizational management style which I believe will have lessons applicable to all kinds of organizations. Enlightened leaders in other areas are also developing methods that involve treating their staff, customers and other stakeholders as a communities, but this still appears to be the exception, not the norm.”

Joi Ito verlinkt noch ein Essay von Dee Hock (Gründer von VISA), das er wie folgt beschreibt:

“His notion of leadership is bottom-up, community and coordination oriented and not focused on the exercise of authority.”

Klingt bekannt, oder?
