This is likely going to be an eye-opener for many of you, Rijon and I discussed "From Trist to Today" with my wonderful friend Paul Tolchinsky – co-creator of #WholeScaleChange, #EODF founder and author of 2 books & many articles in the field of #OrgDev. In our conversation, we traced the history of OD in practice, from its beginnings to today, and into the future. This 67-min. video should be worth your while!

#Optimization comes from seeking practical answers.
#Transformation comes from pursuing profound questions,
rather than seeking practical answers.

Tired of change management and even of "change leadership"? The good news is: There is an alternative. We call it #VFOT (Very Fast Organizational Transformation), #TimeBoxedChange or #OpenSpaceBeta!

Culture eats nothing at all.
Culture is merely a shadow of an organization:
Change the system - the culture will follow!
Culture is "obedient", not "powerful".
It is "output", not "input."
The culture is shit? Work the system!
#betacodex #culturechange #systemsthinking #agile #orgdev #organizationaldevelopment #lean #leanmanagement #teal #beyondbudgeting #systemstheory #workthesystem #red42

Culture change is neither hard nor easy.
Neither fast nor slow.
Neither good nor bad.
Culture is a bit like the weather:
you cannot change it, even though it changes all the time.
Culture is read-only.

Transformation means "overcoming", not "optimizing."

Transformation that deserved the name cannot and will not happen if you do not remove, eliminate and overcome things, methods, patterns, beliefs and words that are connected with the previous state of the system.

I hope you will acknowledge that, looking at #agile and #lean this way, it is clear that 100% of "agile transformations" and "lean transformations" so far failed to achieve anything worth the name.

Maybe you will even acknowledge that 96% of agile tools, methods, techniques, frameworks and approaches are utterly inapt at supporting transformation.

#agiletransformation #change #leantransformation #changemanagement #orgdev #betacodex #openspacebeta #vfot #timeboxedchange

Problem is: too many people - including managers, employees, owners and consultants - have come to accept command-and-control management as "inevitable."

Which is utterly wrong, of course.

I am delighted and super-happy that we can present a brand new #BetaCodex white paper today! It is our 19th research paper – and we are discussing no less than 10 highly practical insights and patterns from 20 years and more than 50 consulting projects on #CellStructureDesign!

- Matrix Structures
- The Spotify Model
- #Agile Scaling (SAFe etc)
- Silo structures
- Sociocracy/holacracy
All that stuff is exactly the same: It leads to #centralization, bureaucratization, fear, waste, demotivation & learned helplessness.

I have a new #BetaCodex research paper in the works. The last one, from June 2021, was about #OrgPhysics in Follett's Words. You can read it here: https://betacodex.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/2021-06-27-BetaCodex-OrgPhysics-in-Folletts-words.pdf.

I don't want to disclose the new paper's topic yet, but I can say it is about findings from practice work.

In 2019, the #BetaCodex Network published two important research papers about #change & #transformation:
Paper 15: Secrets of Very Fast Organizational Transformation https://betacodex.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/BetaCodex-SecretsOfVFOT.pdf and
Paper 16: From Now to New, Right Here: Change-as Flipping
https://betacodex.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/BetaCodex-ChangeAsFlipping.pdf

The two papers outline key concepts and theory behind the #OpenSpaceBeta approach, developed the previous year. They also mark a new era in #OrganizationalDevelopment: Away from planned change and #ChangeManagement, and towards "change work done together with all the willing". Both papers were written by our associates @silkehermann and @nielspflaeging.

Change Management is done by the few.
OpenSpace Beta is done by all the willing.

#openspacebeta #betacodex #transformation #vfot #agile #lean #orgdev #change #changemanagement #agiletransfomation

Change Management is disruptive.
OpenSpace Beta is conservative.

#openspacebeta #betacodex #transformation #vfot #agile #lean #orgdev #change #changemanagement #agiletransfomation

Change Management is full of drama.
OpenSpace Beta is undramatic.

#openspacebeta #betacodex #transformation #vfot #agile #lean #orgdev #change #changemanagement #agiletransfomation

Change Management employs Facts, Force, Fear.
OpenSpace Beta employs Relate, Repeat, Reframe.

#openspacebeta #betacodex #transformation #vfot #agile #lean #orgdev #change #changemanagement #agiletransfomation

Change Management uses participation late.
OpenSpace Beta uses invitation early.

#openspacebeta #betacodex #transformation #vfot #agile #lean #orgdev #change #changemanagement #agiletransfomation

Change Management keeps dragging on..
OpenSpace Beta is strictly time-boxed.

#openspacebeta #betacodex #transformation #vfot #agile #lean #orgdev #change #changemanagement #agiletransfomation

Organizational #scaling is the opposite of #decentralization.
As an #orgdesign concept, it just as dumb an idea as #matrixorganization.

Organizations should NOT be flat.
Because flat organizations are still in command-and-control mode.

“The most familiar example of integrating as the social process is when two or three people meet to #decide on some course of action, and separate with a purpose, a will, which was not possessed by anyone when he came to the meeting but is the result of the interweaving of all. In this true social process there takes place neither absorption nor #compromise.” Mary P. #Follett, 1924
