At Work with The Ready
Brave New Work 54. Rethinking Our Approach to Power and Leadership with Doug Kirkpatrick
03 Dec 2020
While we often throw around terms like "the future of work" and "new ways of working," the reality is that much of the wisdom about how to self-organize and self-manage has been around for a long, long time. What we can learn from this is that there's really nothing new about this moment—except for the fact that more and more people are waking up to the fact that the status quo just isn't good enough. In this episode of Brave New Work, Aaron Dignan and Rodney Evans speak with Doug Kirkpatrick, author of The No-Limits Enterprise (and many others), about his origin story at The Morning Star Company and what he's learned about self-management in the decades since. Learn more about Doug on LinkedIn, Twitter, and from reading his book: The No-Limit's Enterprise. Learn more about The Morning Star Company on their website.
