Ricardo Semler: How to run a company with (almost) no rules. #LifeWorkBalance

Lesson created by Jose G. Lepervanche using

Video from TED YouTube Channel

Let’s Begin…

What if your job didn’t control your life? Brazilian CEO Ricardo Semler practices a radical form of corporate democracy, rethinking everything from board meetings to how workers report their vacation days (they don’t have to). It’s a vision that rewards the wisdom of workers, promotes work-life balance — and leads to some deep insight on what work, and life, is really all about.
