Rethink leadership: Enabler instead of Bottleneck

Relieves executives and strengthens the organization

Over 40% of all important decisions are made defensively -not having the interest of the company, but self-protection in mind. Executives are under enormous pressure to be all-knowing and infallible, to cope with complex situations on their own, and to decide quickly. The result: They become the bottleneck, decisions are delayed, and quality suffers. Rhizome enables a new leadership approach: from heroic, lone decision-makers to empowering enablers.

Here's how it works with Rhizome:

• Distributed responsibility instead of overload: Executives no longer to have to make all decisions by themselves. Through defined action corridors and the advice process, teams decide autonomously while strategic guidelines are maintained.

• From all-knowing to utilizing expertise: Instead of laboriously working their way into every topic, executives systematically involve the individuals who actually possess relevant expertise - and thus make better decisions.

• No more defensive decision-making: The culture of "safe enough to try" and transparent documentation reduce personal risk. Executives can decide in the interest of the company without having to fear later accusations.

• New role, greater impact: Executives become process designers and enablers who create the conditions in which teams can make good decisions independently.

Why this is important: Modern leadership doesn't mean having all the answers, but asking the right questions and empowering people. In complex environments, the ability to utilize collective intelligence is more important than personal competence. Rhizome structurally supports this change and makes it palpable in everyday life - a relief for executives, a productivity gain for the organization.
