how long can organic communities self-moderate? // Dangerouslyawesome - http://www.dangerouslyawesome.com/2008...
What’s curious to me is when the leaderless organization grows to a certain size, and frankly, needs leadership. In the model that I described, we’ve intentially created a system in which new leadership can step up. That’s important. But the “sleeper” point here is that organic communities and leaderless organizations and open source collaborations are NOT leaderless. They are NOT 100% de-stratified. If they were, they would not remain productive. Someone still needs to be there to pull the trigger, or clean up the mess. Right? I think that leadership is critical, even in “leaderless” organizations. - × × ×
“The process that we started is one that we share the hope lives long beyond us. The fact is, it was there before us, it just needed some nurturing at the time we came along. # One of the decisions we made in how we’d lead the community was just that: we’d lead the community, by example, and watch for other leadership to step up and encourage and foster that. Ultimately the end goal was for the effort to be sustainable. That meant that over time, it no longer needs us. This mastermind plan is part of Geoff’s overall education philosophy and something that I think is brilliant and important for everyone to think about.” - × × ×
