The below concepts:

• Are based on “Chaos Theory” and “Complex Adaptive Systems”.
• Needed to be implemented to create Eco-Autonomous organization.
• You can adopt all of them, part of them or one of them. Any concept adoption will increase your organizational readiness for the future.

1 – No central control

 

• In contrast to the current management system and company structure, we propose decentralized, distributed and autonomous system and structure.
• Decision making and authority distributed to the company’s groups and individuals.

2 – A company is a set of Entities and Functions

 

• Entities are a grouping of other entities and function that need to work together to reach a common goal (groups in a classical organization).
• Functions are defined behaviors for given internal/external events and defined interactions with other functions or entities (Duty in the traditional role).

3 – Purpose is the glue

 

• Each element in the company must have a purpose that derived from the company purpose.

4 – Steered by the environment

 

• There shouldn’t be any steering committees or governance body. Steering and governance are done by continuous getting feedbacks from the company environment.

5 – Clear definition of boundaries

 

• Each Entity and Function have a clear definition of their responsibilities and artifacts they need to manage.

6 – Feedback loops

 

• Each Entity and Function must have 5 metrics that indicate if the entity/function progressing toward reaching its goal.

7 – People are filling functions

 

• People are Agents filling one or many functions in different entities.
• Agents should fill functions based on their knowledge and experience.

8 – No Silos

 

• Entities are set of agents with different expertise and experience needed to reach entity purpose.
• Departments (or silos) of just one type of expertise with common experience should be replaced by non-siloed entities.

9 – Compensation based on contribution and company performance

 

• Agents should be compensated based on company performance.
• Agent compensation should be calculated base on the contribution of the functions he is filling.
• Such compensation model motivates people to collaborate and increase company performance.

10 – Agents are following contracts

 

• Agents are following predefine contracts.
• If Agent continuously fails to fulfill contracts or presenting negative metrics, he is automatically released from function/s.
• Other Entity agents are tasks with resolving the new situation.

11 – Agents can define their contribution level

 

• Agents can fill one function that required small dedication to several functions that dedicate a lot of dedication.
• They will be compensated by the contribution of the functions she is filling.

12 – Each entity can adopt a management system that fit agents memes

 

• An entity is a collection of agents that have a common human psyche.
• Each entity can adopt a management system that fit agents psychics.

13 – Merit base conflict resolution

 

• Conflicts should be resolved based on a vote that factor people relevant experience and knowledge.

14 – Self-Organized

 

• Entities should create their own order as a result of interactions between agents.
• The internal structure of an entity is a result of agents interaction and subject to conflict resolution.

15 – Evolving

 

• Equilibrium is death for any system, including organization.
• Each entity must have a dedicated function to ensure an ongoing evolvement of the entity.
