The revolutionary book of Frederic Laloux, “Reinventing Organizations”, described the foundation of Teal companies: self-organization, wholeness and evolutionary purpose.To evolve towards Teal and New Work, there are cultural prerequisites that must be established and cultivated in your organization such as transparency, trust and autonomy.
Admittedly, this all sounds abstract at first. We will talk about some organizational theory and discuss how you can assess the level of development in your own organization in order to find out which method, patterns and tools could fit the transformation steps you would like to initiate.

Sociocracy, the wider umbrella of the Sociocratic Circle Method first implemented in the 1980ies, has grown in popularity over the years and in particular in the last 3-5 years. It has served as the basis for many other systems and can be combined with a multitude of other frameworks.
Its basic design principles help organizations straddle collective leadership in circles and individual empowerment in roles. Teams can increase their listening and quality of conversation with rounds and consent decision-making and move with more clarity, intentionality, and flexibility in their experimentation and learning.

Sociocracy 3.0 – or S3 in short – is a collection of 70+ practical techniques and patterns around self-organisation, participatory decision-making, adaptive organisational structures and continuous learning. These patterns and techniques are supported and enforced by a set of strong, guiding principles that help you to develop a truly agile culture. Get introduced to S3 in this session, so you know whether and how to start applying it in your teams or organisation. You’ll learn about the principles and take away some of the principal techniques to get started with.

Organic Organizations (O2) is a social technology that helps organizations become more adaptive, self-organized and purpose-centered. It is composed of a set of essential rules, its “Meta-Agreements”, plus a library of constantly evolving organizational patterns. In this masterclass we will present an overview of O2 and offer a short simulation to experience one of the iterations for processing tensions. By the end of the masterclass, participants will be provided with clear pathways on how to further an independent exploration and study of O2, using our online resources and materials.

If we want to bring more NextGen organizations into the world, then a twofold shift is required: First, a profound shift in our conception of how organizations should function. Secondly, a re-orientation in our approach to change and transformation: Away from notions of change management, and towards fast organizational transformation, together with all the willing. There will be no use of PowerPoint in this session.

In dynamic organizations, transparent information flow empowers each team member to contribute to the most important areas in the company. In this workshop, Kadri Pirn will explain how to implement dynamic structure for flexible prioritization and planning while keeping the classical organizational arrangement, based on Pipedrive’s experience and will introduce activities for encouraging participants to think how to start benefiting from such a structure in their own organization.

We will take some time together to reflect and discuss where to place on the map of New Work the different methods, tools and patterns that you have discovered during the Master Classes
What are ways to initiate evolution and take the first concrete steps while avoiding common pitfalls in organizational transformation? Keeping in mind that we are living in a complex, fast changing world.
In how to start benefiting from such a structure in their own organization.
