The new normal for organizations
Interesting thought by Al Pittampalli, writer of Read This Before Our Next Meeting. Here’s the part that brought it home for me:
In a world that is ever faster and more unpredictable, cultures that encourage (or at least tolerate) individuals and small teams to bypass the bureaucracy when necessary, appear to be winning.
This is especially true in the web development world. Everything changes constantly and, at times, moves at a breakneck pace. As such, those that can’t keep up and get locked into typical corporate bureaucracy usually get left behind. Leads to a “do or die” situation at times.
