Towards Human Centered Organizations (Part 2)

This week’s newsletter brings episode 17 of the Cyb3rSyn Labs Podcast, featuring Alidad Hamidi, the co-founder of Desirable Futures.

I had an absolute mind-bender of a conversation with Alidad that could truly reshape how you think about organizations, leadership, and the future of work. If you've ever felt like your company is stuck in old ways, or if you're a manager constantly firefighting instead of truly enabling your team, this episode is for you.

We dove deep into Open Systems Theory and its profound implications, backed by real-world examples that are nothing short of revolutionary.
