A Truthful Organization has a clear vision and operates from a set of well defined values. Employees are personally motivated to think and act like owners. Organizational assets are invested in an on-going enrichment of individual employee resources. The Truthful Organization seeks to align individuals within the organization to enhance the overall viability of the enterprise and the experience of the individuals. The leaders of a Truthful Organization walk their talk.
Leaders operate with the same guidelines as all employees.
Because there is no need to create artificial incentives, hierarchies, turf building - sacred cows like sales contests which institutionalize internal competition are systematically eliminated. In a Truthful Organization, it is enough that the organization itself succeeds.
