New Book - November 2022

MESH:

a human-centric organisational design for a decentralised world.

Co-authored by Ardcairn founder, Gráinne Hamilton

A compass for navigating decentralisation.

Mesh addresses the opportunities and challenges of the emerging era and proposes an organisational design built around an open, regenerative culture empowered by a granular, mesh structure that is primed for navigating Web3 technology.

It provides an exhaustive framework that is understandable, implementable and complete with a conceptual model and method to enable systems thinking and vantage points for considering the whole organisation.

Mesh provides tools and practices to help organisations implement a human-centric organisational design for a decentralised world.
