In his book, “The Starfish & the Spirit,” Alan Hirsch talks about the importance for missional movements to operate in a chaordic way. Today, we discuss what chaordic movements are and why this is vital for true multiplication movements. 

What I learned from rereading One from Many: VISA and the Rise of Chaordic Organization by Dee Hock. Listen to every full episode for $10 a month or $99 a year. The key ideas you'll learn pays for the subscription cost thousands of times over.WHAT OTHER PEOPLE ARE SAYING:“Founders is the only podcast I pay for and it's worth 100x the cost.”“I've now listened to every episode. From this knowledge I've doubled my business to $500k a year. Love your passion and recommend your podcast to everyone.”“Without a doubt, the highest value-to-cost ratio I've taken advantage of in the last year is the Founders podcast premium feed. Tap into eons of knowledge and experiences, condensed into digestible portions. Highly, highly recommend. “Uniquely outstanding. No fluff and all substance. David does an outstanding job summarizing these biographies and hones in on the elements that make his subjects so unique among entrepreneurs. I particularly enjoy that he focuses on both the founder's positive and negative characteristics as a way of highlighting things to mimic and avoid.”“I just paid for my first premium podcast subscription for Founders podcast. Learning from those who came before us is one of the highest value ways to invest time. David does his homework and exponentially improves my efficiency by focusing on the most valuable lessons.”“I haven't found a better return on my time and money than your podcast for inspiration and time-tested wisdom to help me on my journey."I have listened to every episode released and look forward to every episode that comes out. The only criticism I would have is that after each podcast I usually want to buy the book because I am interested, so my poor wallet suffers.”"I can't get enough of your podcast. You add a new layer to the books I've already read and make connections to ones I haven't, but now must read."“I have listened to many podcasts on entrepreneurship (HIBT, Masters of Scale, etc.) and find Founders to be consistently more helpful than any other entrepreneurship podcast. David is a craftsperson, he carefully reads biographies of founders, distills the most important anecdotes and themes from their life, and draws commonalities across lives. David's focus is rightfully not on teaching you a formula to succeed but on constantly pushing you to think different.”“I highly highly recommend this podcast. Holy cow. I've been binge listening to these and you start to see patterns across all these incredible humans.”Listening to your podcast has changed my life and that is not a statement I make often.“After one episode I quickly joined the Misfit feed. Love the insight and thoughts shared along the way. David loves what he does and it shines through on the podcast. Definitely my go-to podcast now.”“It is worth every penny. I cannot put into words how fantastic this podcast is. Just stop reading this and get the full access.”“Personally it's one of my top 3 favorite podcasts. If you're into business and startups and technology, this is for you. David covers good books and I've come to really appreciate his perspective. Can't say enough good things.”“I quickly subscribed and it's honestly been the best money I've spent all year. It has inspired me to read biographies. Highly recommend.”“This is the most inspirational and best business podcast out there. David has inspired me to focus on biographies rather than general business books. I'm addicted.”“Anyone interested in business must find the time to listen to each any every Founders podcast. A high return on investment will be a virtual certainty. Subscribe and start listening as soon as possible.”“David saves you hundreds of hours by summarizing bios of legendary business founders and providing valuable insight on what makes an individual successful. He has introduced me to many founders I would have never known existed.”“The podcasts offer spectacular lessons on life, human nature and business achievement. David's enthusiasm and personal thoughts bring me joy. My journey has been enhanced by his efforts.”"Founders is the best self investment that I've made in years."UPGRADE to listen to the rest of this episode and gain access to 268 full length episodes.You will learn the key insights from biographies on Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, John D.

This episode, Dr. Natalie Nixon and I dig into not just what it means to be creative, but also how leaders can create space for creativity and inspire it in their teams by letting in a little chaos. Dr. Nixon is the author of The Creativity Leap, a creativity strategist, and a highly sought-after keynote speaker. In this conversation, we dive into the ideas behind her book, what makes someone "a creative" (hint: it involves being deeply human), and how important humanity and creativity are to the future of work - Natalie and I agree that we should let our AI overlords do what they do best…and we humans should focus on what we do best - be creative and empathetic! Natalie and I have three unexpected things in common: Ballroom dancing, an enthusiasm for Chaordic Thinking, and a deep sense that these two things are deeply intertwined! Dancing looks to regularly resolve the dynamic tension between chaos and order, and find a state of flow between the two. Chaordic Systems Thinking, if you're new to it, was first coined by Dee Hock, the founder and former CEO of VISA. He felt an ideal organization would balance order and control with disorder and openness, moving between them as it grew. Chaordic is just a made-up word combining chaos and order. I made a basic diagram of Chaordic systems Thinking for my book, Good Talk. Total Order (O, on the right) is oppressive and stultifying. It also doesn't deal well with surprise or adapt to unpredictability. Total chaos (C, on the left) can mean a total collapse of a given system - as Natalie says, without any boundaries, what is it even!?!  A chaordic system moves between the poles of chaos and order, spiraling outward, growing and expanding as it does. A conversation can be chaordic, too, by the way. For example, in a workshop, I sometimes feel the noise of collaboration and conversation rise, and I wonder, “Is this the moment to rein things in and move the conversation forward?” After all, sometimes that golden “aha” moment is just around the corner, just past my capacity to enjoy the chaos. In the chaos and randomness, new patterns are sometimes found. Like in jazz, those new patterns are then played with, firmed up, made more orderly…until they get too controlled, boring or repetitive. Then the chaordic cycle swings back towards chaos.  This is why, as Natalie points out, good leaders are also good followers: they are open to changing environments, and take the best of what's emerging, reading their team and adapting to new situations. Natalie and I also unpack the misunderstandings many folks, leaders included, have around the idea of being creative - one of most damaging being that the word doesn't (or can't) apply to them. Natalie's ideas on creativity and flow are critical for the future of work, and something that every leader, whether you lead a team of artists or a team of accountants, needs to hear.

Part 7 explores Dee Hock's latest years from age 75-92 and his thoughts on what comes next. This episode is my personal favourite. Dee shares: Competition and Cooperation Thoughts on the future The impact of future technologies Parting advice for us all Abstract: 52 years ago, our guest foresaw and implemented the foundations for the world's first trillion dollar organisation. Back then, Visa was little more than a set of unorthodox convictions about organisation slowly growing in the mind of a young corporate rebel. Today, according to the Visa 2019 annual report, payments and cash volume for the year was a staggering $11.6 trillion dollars, transactions processed on Visa's networks totalled $138.3 trillion dollars and the year saw some 3.4 billion Visa cards in operation. He is the man who imagined this reality, who had a once-deemed-impossible vision 52 years ago, a vision which has become a concrete reality today. He is a man who has a different view on what the next 50 years can deliver, but that vision will require a radical shift in mindset for every single one of us.

He also shares some fascinating philosophies. Dee shares: His philosophies of leadership and management How we can arrange our time to be a good leader and even a follower How he found himself leading Visa, when only 3 years previously he was searching through bins as part of his role Internal models of reality His philosophy on what he calls the machine metaphor and how we live in such mechanical and command and control society The innovations that he led, including how his team built authorisation software for his vision of a digital world His team's agile working methods Abstract: 52 years ago, our guest foresaw and implemented the foundations for the world's first trillion dollar organisation.

Part 2 explores how just as Dee Hock decided to "retire on the job" by giving up on his desire to make an impact on the business world, a series of events gave him the opportunity to create a chaordic organisation that would eventually become Visa.

What I learned from reading One From Many: VISA and the Rise of Chaordic Organization by Dee Hock Walking away at the pinnacle of success was the hardest thing I have ever done (0:01)Through the years, I have greatly feared and sought to keep at bay the four beasts that inevitably devour their keeper – Ego, Envy, Avarice, and Ambition. In 1984, I severed all connections with business for a life of isolation and anonymity, convinced I was making a great bargain by trading money for time, position for liberty, and ego for contentment – that the beasts were securely caged. –Dee Hock (4:14)Visa was little more than a set of unorthodox convictions about organization slowly growing in the mind of a young corporate rebel (9:03)Dee's first jobs (21:44)Learning how mechanistic, Industrial Age organizations really function (28:17)Useful questions to ask in your organization (34:30)A failure at 36 years old (38:33)The environment from which Visa emerged (46:41)Healthy vs Unhealthy Organizations (55:19)Focus on how your product or company "ought to be" and nothing else. (57:30)I had held fast to the notion that until someone has repeatedly said "no!" and adamantly refuses another word on the subject, they are in the process of saying "yes" and don't know it yet. –Dee Hock (1:03:55)His biggest regret: The fight against duality (monopoly) (1:04:35)How Dee Hock dealt with stress (1:07:00)His biggest regret: The fight against duality (monopoly) continued (1:09:52)Dee's surprising conclusion about his work (1:16:50)“I have listened to every episode released and look forward to every episode that comes out.

Hesselbein, Frances and Rob Johnston. On Mission and Leadership: A Leader to Leader Guide. San Francisco: Jossey-Bass, 2002. Intellectual capital is an organization's primary asset. Knowledge workers seek meaning and purpose in their work, a climate of trust and optimism, and results. Technical competence: business literacy and grasp of one's field Conceptual skill: a facility for abstract or strategic thinking Track record: a history of achieving results People skills: an ability to communicate, motivate, and delegate Taste: an ability to identify and cultivate talent Judgment: making difficult decisions in a short time frame with imperfect data Character: the qualities that define who we are … constituents seek four things: meaning or direction, trust in and from the leader, a sense of hope and optimism, and results. … Effective leaders bring passion, perspective, and significance to the process of defining organizational purpose. …constituents want not just a vision of where we're heading but also where they've been and where they are now. In short, every exemplary leader that I have met has what seems to be an unwarranted degree of optimism--and that helps generate the energy and commitment necessary to achieve results. Emotional intelligence is more important to successful leadership than I Q or technical expertise. Emotional intelligence includes self-awareness and the abilities to manage one's emotions and impulses, motivate others, show empathy, and stay connected. A leader who is self-effacing and lacks charisma may fail to inspire confidence. A charismatic leader who believes that he or she is more important than others eventually will lose followers. To inspire both loyalty and excitement, a leader needs to couple humility with charisma. Leaders must communicate their organization's mission to all parts of the organization. The mission provides a reference point, an anchor, and a source of hope in times of change. When it connects with people's values, it brings purpose and meaning to those who are fulfilling the mission and provides the impetus for creativity, productivity, and quality in the work and in personal development. The first responsibility of a leader is to manage his or her own character, integrity, humility, knowledge, words, and acts. Refuting the idea that management is an exercise of authority over those below, chaordic leadership is based on follower ship -- a voluntary response to a clear, constructive purpose and compelling ethical principles. Chaordic leaders focus upward and sideward as well as downward. They do not dictate; they modify conditions that prevent synergy and accomplishment. Managing quietly involves knowing that a leader is not the sum total of an organization. It involves inspiring, encouraging, and enabling others by creating a culture of openness, trust, community, and energy. Quiet leaders are low-key but engaging and interactive. They tend to their organizations and spend more time preventing problems than fixing them. They infuse values and slow, profound change for which everyone takes responsibility while holding other things steady -- a natural continuous improvement.
