From Pyramid Schemes to Mutual Fun
This case outlines the organizational structure found at
Rite-Solutions who builds advanced software for the military as
well as consumer-gaming platforms for casinos. The owners
wanted to scrap the pyramid and rethink the company as a community.
The company has a stock-market type game called “Mutual Fun”
with the aim of making people feel relevant to the success of the
business. So far the game has generated more than 50
innovative product and process ideas.
Management Update: Rite-Solutions was a
2015 finalist for the 10th annual Bersin by
Deloitte WhatWorks Award program recognizing innovation and
excellence in critical areas of human resources.
Case Question: Says Jim Lavoie:
“Being acknowledged as part of an organization’s future is all it
takes for an employee to grow deeper roots in it.” First of
all, explain what Lavoie means. Then consider the following
questions: Do you basically agree or disagree with
Lavoie? Do you think that it’s important to “grow roots” in
an organization that you work for? What might it take for you
to feel that you’re “part of an organization’s future” – that it’s
worth it to sink “deeper roots”? What other factors might be
important to you in feeling that you’re something more than a mere
cog in some organizational machine?
