When Work Stops Working: The Great Unraveling and Network Revolution
Here's a startling fact: the average company lifespan has crashed from 61 years to less than 18. While executives scramble to explain this collapse through market forces and digital disruption, they're missing the real story unfolding in their own hallways. Employees are voting with their feet-35% of the U.S. workforce walked away from their jobs in 2021 alone. What's driving this exodus isn't just better pay elsewhere. People are fleeing organizations that treat them like cogs in a machine rather than humans with potential. The old playbook-hierarchical control, rigid job descriptions, annual performance reviews-has become a liability in a world where innovation determines survival. Companies built on 20th-century management principles are crumbling while a new breed of organization is emerging, one that understands a fundamental truth: the path to profits runs through purpose, and the road to productivity winds through human flourishing. Think about how most organizations still operate. Someone at the top makes a decision, passes it down through layers of management, and months later something finally happens-usually too late to matter. This industrial-era hierarchy worked brilliantly when the goal was producing identical widgets at scale. But today's challenges demand something entirely different: speed, creativity, and the ability to pivot on a dime. The solution isn't tweaking the org chart-it's fundamentally reimagining how work gets done. Progressive companies are organizing around networks of small, empowered teams rather than departments and divisions. Think of it like the difference between a classical orchestra and a jazz ensemble. The orchestra needs a conductor telling everyone exactly what to play and when. But a jazz band? Each musician knows their role, listens intently to others, and improvises together toward a shared vision. Spotify cracked this code with their "squad" model-teams of eight or fewer people working together physically with clear missions. These squads operate autonomously but remain "loosely coupled but tightly aligned." When ANZ Bank adopted this approach, CEO Shayne Elliott watched as "very quickly the way of work changes." Hierarchies flattened, departments dissolved, and suddenly people were organizing around customer outcomes rather than functional silos.
