Summary

This video features Aaron Dignan, author of "Brave New Work", discussing better ways of working and how to build a company that runs itself. Dignan believes the way we work is broken - meetings and emails are incessant, and bureaucracy stifles talent and creativity. Here, he outlines how to eliminate red tape, tap into collective intelligence, and rethink long-held traditions that no longer make sense.
