Jana Werner & Phil Le-Brun

Far too many organizations are stuck in rigid structures and bogged down in bureaucracy, leftovers from the previous industrial age. In identifying the underlying issues, Jana and Phil recorded habitual, intuitive responses to these complex challenges in 36 antipatterns. In The Octopus Organization, they provide transformative, simple changes in mindset, practices, and behavior that form a guide to moving beyond rigid structures and nurturing the living, adaptable organization leaders aspire to create. Phil and Jana feature regularly as guests in interview podcasts and keynote speakers in conferences and corporate events across the globe.
