In a previous blog post, Discovering Wisdom in Disney’s Collaborative Style, I exalted some of the leadership advantages that Walt Disney showed during his years as a creative genius. Today I came across a blog article describing the Disney company’s organizational chart. You’ll notice that it varies greatly from the traditional hierarchical approach. Although more than three generations ago, it displays a more creative and collegial approach to designing an organization.

Great find- amazing to know that this type of mutual respect and collaboration is not a NEW approach- as we (including me) all want to refer to the new global voice (The ‘Net).
I’d like to see this model applied to education.
I’d like to see this model applied to economy.
I could go on…..
