- 17. Zappos IP, Inc. | @ZapposLabs “Holacracy is not about the people. This is one of the aspects of the practice that people have the hardest time swallowing, but it’s fundamental. Holacracy doesn't try to improve people, or make them more compassionate, or more conscious. And it doesn't ask them to create any specific culture or relate to each other in any particular way. Yet precisely by not trying to change people or culture, it provides the conditions for personal and cultural development to arise more naturally - or not, when it's not meant to be.” – Brian Robertson 17

Zappos IP, Inc. | @ZapposLabs “Great leaders of innovation see their role not as take-charge direction setters but as creators of a context in which others make innovation happen.” HBR: Collective Genius No longer casting themselves as solo visionaries, smart leaders are rewriting the rules of innovation. by Linda A. Hill, Greg Brandeau, Emily Truelove, and Kent Lineba

Editor's Notes
- To live and deliver Wow - Sharing smiles through unique experiences of dairy goodness.
- Use tony’s take aways - 15% increase in productivity/innovation per resident every time the size of a city doubles, but companies get less productive/innovative per employee as they get bigger - therefore, structure zappos more like a city (which self-organizes) and less like a bureaucratic organization Use park analogy
- First email from Tony WY has on Hola is 10/31/2012: “if you're able to clear your schedule for this meeting that would be great - i saw him present at a conference i attended and think that his concept around organizational structure is really, really interesting. if you have something that can't be moved then don't worry about it, but the more people we have on the cc list that can attend this one the more useful and interesting the meeting will be for all of us.”
- Add holacracy of dunces articles
- Create context Work on the business not in the business Tie it back to silver bullet myth We’ve learned it’s not just one thing, it’s suppport in all phases, not being afraid to try new methods, kill them,

Olin School of Business at Washington University estimates that 40 percent of today's F500 companies on the S&P 500 will no longer exist in 10 years.
