Wiring the Winning Organization: Focus on the Individual
summary
Research across tens of thousands of employees finds organizations win by deliberately moving problem‑solving to low‑risk zones using slowification, simplification, and amplification. Leaders go into the workspace, ask individuals three daily questions — treated with dignity and respect; given what they need and does the work add value to their life; recognized by someone whose opinion matters — and act on any “no.” This practice helped Alcoa shift from high‑hazard drudgery to safe, productive operations and scales beyond single projects.
