Do we need managers, or do we need good managers? There's evidence that they're not exactly the same thing - and some of the best-managed organisations have very few people in formal management positions. Instead, they get management done by having everyone involved. This is a repost of something I originally wrote for Harvard Business Review Blogs.
The only way we can make ourselves is through making each other. And we always have a choice in how we make others. Do we do it using generative, both/and, mutually thriving stories, thoughts, and language, or do we do it using narcissistic, better than, zero-sum ideas? The choices we make for how we make others drives who “we” are.
A lot of times, if you see someone that's good at something, we believe their skill comes naturally. But often, it's the result of hours and hours of hard work, and practice. This is great news, because it means that all of us can better at things that we love.
