The Democratic Enterprise: Liberating Your Business with Freedom, Flexibility and Commitment

Lynda Gratton

The Democratic Enterprise shifts the focus from the individual to the organisation. It encourages the reader to reconsider the way we manage and organise people to make the most of their talent and energy.

This book sets out a practical blueprint for designing smarter working relationships based on free choice and shared purpose. It uses the insights gained from eight companies which pioneered choice and democracy. This book shares how autonomy, choice and trust can breed speed, flexibility and commitment.

“The Democratic Enterprise explores, from the perspective of the individual and the organisation what it means to craft choice, and shows us how to use some of the basic principles of democracy to build organisations of which we can be proud”.
