Ep. 100 Eva, Trevor and Kajsa from Tuff on the messy beauty of working in a self-managing organisation

Season 1 · Episode 100

Friday, December 5, 2025 • Duration 01:20:08

For episode 100, Lisa talks with her colleagues Eva Vilella, Trevor Hudson, and Kajsa Thelander Sadio from Tuff Leadership Training about what it's really like to work inside a self-managing organisation. They explore how working at Tuff has transformed each of them, their culture of continuous development with practices like "pebbles" and "mooseheads," and the genuine challenges alongside the beauty – from coordination difficulties to the loneliness of autonomy. A rare inside look at self-management with all its complexity, humor, and humanity.

Ep. 99 Perttu Salovaara on Radically Decentralised Organisations and leaderless leadership

Season 1 · Episode 99

Monday, September 8, 2025 • Duration 01:21:53

If we want to practise alternatives to hierarchy, what needs to be in place? Perttu has twenty years' experience as an organisational consultant and I've been really enjoying his research papers on Radically Decentralised Organisations.

We talk about the four things needed for a Radically Decentralised Organisation to be sustainable, leaderless leadership, group dynamics we need to be aware of, and some interesting case studies in Finland, particularly in the public sector.

Ep. 89 Ted Rau on parallels between Relationship Anarchy and self-management

Season 1 · Episode 89

Wednesday, May 10, 2023 • Duration 58:21

What can the realm of self-management and new ways of working learn from the realm of polyamory, Relationship Anarchy and open relationships? And how can practices in self-organising work teams help us improve our personal relationships?

Ted Rau is the co-founder of Sociocracy for All and author of books like 'Who Decides Who Decides?' and 'Many Voices One Song'. In his personal life, he has been in monogamous relationships and, for the last seven years, in open relationships. We explore the parallels across personal and professional relationships, like what it means to 'be in choice', consent decision-making as a mindset more than a process, holding multiple roles, and agreement-making.

Ep. 88 Jessica and Douglas Rauch from Aquadec on tradesmen and teal

Season 1 · Episode 88

Tuesday, April 25, 2023 • Duration 52:02

Douglas Rauch was thinking of selling his construction business until he read Reinventing Organisations by Frederic Laloux. After that, Aquadec went on a transformation journey to becoming a self-managing company. Douglas and his daughter Jessica share the ups and downs of this process over the last five years, including why their initial approach was a spectacular failure, why it was an inner shift that ended up making the difference, and something called "S**t Day."

Ep. 87 Kimberly Loh on Compassionate Conversations and understanding our patterns in conflicts

Season 1 · Episode 87

Wednesday, April 12, 2023 • Duration 52:18

Kimberly Loh works in the worlds of conflict resolution, coaching, embodiment and mindfulness. She is also the co-author of 'Compassionate Conversations: How to Speak and Listen from the Heart.' We talk about learning to be aware of patterns we have when it comes to engaging with conflict, and Kim shares some ground rules for having 'Compassionate Conversations', as well as some really useful self-reflective practices to help us be more conscious of how we show up in conversations, especially 'difficult' ones. We also cover topics like power, hierarchies, and why human beings rarely learn how to 'do' conflict well.

Ep. 86 Sanjay Fernandes on Self-Organised Learning Environments in Colombia

Season 1 · Episode 86

Thursday, March 23, 2023 • Duration 57:05

Since 2014, Sanjay Fernandes and his colleagues at SOLE Colombia have been teaching citizens the principles of a Self-Organised Learning Environment. He is passionate about reimagining learning and tackling issues like inequality, inspired by decades of research by Sugata Mitra which has shown that SOLEs allow children (and people in general) to learn almost anything.

To date, more than 450,000 Colombians have participated in SOLEs and Sanjay shares some wonderful stories of how this methodology has reawakened people's curiosity and sense of being an active citizen. Whether in public libraries, schools or organisations, we talk about the value of asking big questions and searching for the answers together, and the role of the 'Granny Cloud' – a network of encouraging non-experts.

Ep. 85 Bernadette Wesley on bridging inner and outer transformation

Season 1 · Episode 85

Wednesday, March 8, 2023 • Duration 01:05:21

Bernadette Wesley's work is all about bridging the world of inner development with the world of being in an organisation together. We talk about Deliberately Developmental Organisations (DDOs); self-organisation and why changing structures is not enough; the Inner Development Goals (IDGs); and three practices that Bernadette has found particularly powerful: Peer Learning Spaces, Immunity to Change Maps, and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) Tapping.

Bernadette is an Associate Partner with Fraendi, and is the Coordinator for the Inner Development Goals (IDG) Hub in Porto, Portugal, centering on Adult Development in SDG oriented organisations.

Ep. 84 Jon Alexander on the possibility of opening up a Citizen Future

Season 1 · Episode 84

Wednesday, February 22, 2023 • Duration 50:33

Jon Alexander is the author of the hugely popular 2022 book 'Citizens: Why the Key to Fixing Everything is All of Us'. He talks to me about the people he interviewed and the stories he collected which show how it's possible to go from what he calls a 'Consumer' mindset to a 'Citizen' mindset – like Taiwan's innovative approach during the COVID pandemic. We also discuss the Three P's of Participatory Organisations, what leadership would need to look like in a Citizen Future, and why we should try to create 'safe uncertainty'.

Ep. 83 Imandeep Kaur on reimagining social and civic infrastructures for the challenges of the 21st century

Season 1 · Episode 83

Thursday, February 9, 2023 • Duration 01:09:12

What would it look like to reimagine the systems of a whole city? To really involve citizens in addressing the huge challenges we face today? Imandeep Kaur reflects on what she has learned in the last ten years from being part of an ecosystem of social entrepreneurs in Birmingham who are cultivating 'radical reimagination'.

From TEDx Brum, to Impact Hub Birmingham, to Dark Matter Labs and finally as the director of CIVIC SQUARE, where she has been greatly influenced by Kate Raworth's work on Doughnut Economics, Immy shares some deep insights and big questions from her journey about systems change and leadership.
