Effective Leadership - World Academy of Art & Science
• Make them work in the traditional silo way : hierarchical, command and control, specialists, task based
• Purpose is to execute the tasks according to the plan… aligned with the altruistic and sustainable value proposition
• Identify the 15% ready
• Make them work in the synergetic way : transversal, multidisciplinary, project based
• Purpose is to plan and deploy projects

Our Conclusion
We think • Current organizations and management style are
highly underoptimized : destroying engagement and creativity
• Challenge is on the culture, not on fine tuning any processes
Before : the pyramid was serving the leaders After : the leader is serving a collective
intelligence
We believe in the solutions we experienced:
1. A way for the leader to extand his area of care2. Matching a way for the organization to grow
harmonously3. Large “management freed” organizations outperform
