Mooseheads on the Table: Stories About Self-Managing Companies from Sweden

Our book 

A collection of insights and stories from two decades of experimenting with self-organisation

Before Tuff was founded, Karin Tenelius was an early pioneer of self-managing organisations in Sweden. This book details a number of cases where she helped transformed small businesses in Sweden into decentralised companies – a hotel, an IT company, a call centre and more.

You will read about real transformation stories – the triumphs and the failures – as well as key insights about what’s needed for autonomous teams to thrive.

The research alongside the stories makes for the perfect pracademic book – underpinned and stimulating for practitioners and academics alike. I expect this book to be referenced like Frederic Laloux’s work is.

Truly love this book. It fills an important gap in self-management literature. It has a strong focus on coaching towards self-management and less on structures and processes. Very powerful perspective!
