For an adaptive leadership to succeed in a chaordic organization, one of the key factors is mutual trust. Could you please highlight top two things from your list that helps develop trusting culture in an organization?
CHOW Solution:
There are so many practices to be set and followed consistently over a period to build trust and sustain it. As a start, I like the idea of Laura Thomson’s excellent talk on Minimum Viable Bureaucracy as written by Doug Belshaw (https://dougbelshaw.com/blog/tag/chaordic-systems/)
- Begin by trusting others
- Be trustworthy

Good read. Completely agree.
On a lighter note, I have come across teams who consider “maximize the amount of work not done” to Not do anything at all !!
It’s important that we coaches explain the correct meaning of these terms to the teams. And thanks for doing that.
Thanks for your comment, Ananthakrishnan! Yes, I too have seen teams mis-interpreting the principle.
