How to run a company with no rules.

“People are responsible adults at home. Why do we suddenly transform them into adolescents with no freedom when they reach the workplace?”

Ricardo Semler, famous for his book Maverick, practices a radical form of corporate democracy, rethinking everything from board meetings to how workers report their vacation days (they don’t have to). It’s a vision that rewards the wisdom of workers, promotes work-life balance — and leads to some deep insight on what work, and life, is really all about.

#stratapp creates a practical option for you to progress to this state, or parts of it, at your own pace, where employees themselves start to drive ideation to planning, to strategy and day to day execution. Where leaders become coaches and everyone at work feels they have a stake in learning and evolving together.

Inspired by Ricardo Semler, a visiting scholar at Harvard Business School, many entrepreneurs and their companies have achieved this nervana state.

#stratapp accelerates and de-risks your journey to get there.
