"Hamel and Zanini may be onto something. Unleash people's creativity and productivity will improve, job satisfaction will increase, and workers in supposedly 'low-skilled' jobs will be free to demonstrate their abilities. If so, the future of work needn't be gloomy after all." - The Economist

"Humanocracy makes the case for replacing chain of command with chain of trust and radical transparency. It's a prescription for unlocking game-changing innovation and the value of every individual." - Marc Benioff, cofounder, Chairman, and CEO, Salesforce; New York Times bestselling author, Trailblazer

"Anyone trying to reinvent a legacy business should read Humanocracy. Gary Hamel and Michele Zanini set out a practical view on how to address the transformation challenges many companies are dealing with. Humanocracy highlights a lesson that has never been more important: businesses are all about people, and the more human we make them, the better." - Ana Botín, Executive Chairman, Banco Santander

"Rarely has the case for dismantling bureaucracy been made as effectively, passionately, and comprehensively. The time to start is now, and the book to read is Humanocracy. Essential to revitalizing our organizations and reinvigorating our economies." - Bengt Holmström, Paul A. Samuelson Professor of Economics, Emeritus, Massachusetts Institute of Technology; 2016 Nobel laureate in Economics

"Humanocracy provides the reader with a road map to helping organizations unleash creativity, energy, and resiliency through leveraging the core of every organization-humans." - Gen. Stanley McChrystal, US Army, Retired; bestselling author, Team of Teams

"Humanocracy is the most important management book I have read in a very long time. This is not just another book about the power of purpose or the joys of empowerment. Rather, it's a detailed, well-researched, data-driven, compellingly argued exposí on the massive costs of bureaucracy in society. Hamel and Zanini offer an equally compelling argument for why it doesn't have to be this way, complete with a practical guide for creating organizations that really work." - Amy Edmondson, Novartis Professor of Leadership and Management, Harvard Business School; author, The Fearless Organization
