Have you ever had a soul-crushing moment at work? Most people have had at least one, which makes me wonder “Are we designing soul-crushing organizations?” This session introduces ways to build soulfulness into an organization’s design.

Description:

Work can be soul-crushing. And organizations themselves can feel like bleak, soulless entities. This session starts by making the case for soulful organizations. Next we’ll make the connection between organizational design and its power to enable organizational soul. We’ll introduce ideas for building soul into organizations. Participants will then explore practical ways to apply soulful constructs to an organization.

We begin with the core concept that souls at work depends on 3 things: Power, Freedom and Connection. We build on this core concept to establish the “5 steps to soul” as a framework to apply to organizational design. Participants will then apply the 5 steps to their own org design challenges.
