Today’s corporation business model is broken because:

  • 67% of workers are actively unhappy with their jobs
  • The current organizational structure cannot adapt as fast as the world is changing
  • In a top-down system, innovation is being smothered
  • Mistrust between the general public and corporate entities is at an all-time high
  • Today’s corporations would knowingly endanger the health of the planet, the lives of their customers and the general public in exchange for profit
  • Workforce driven, coerced, and manipulated by a system of punishments and rewards, leaves very little room for ingenuity, cooperation, honesty, or respect. That is, our humanity
  • The current business model focuses on goals, and thus acts as if the ends can justify the means

Note: All the info above comes from this document: http://bettermeans.org/front/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/Open_Enterprise_White_Paper.pdf  that is The Open Enterprise Manifesto

So we need to craft a new paradigm that allow us to work together, to be happy doing what we do to earn a living, to take the best from us and our team work-teams, and to build companies founded on values. This model sounds like a good option for that. Thanks to maravilla for shering it!!
