There is much to be said for being given autonomy to perform tasks and create sometimes innovative solutions to do so. The trust given can be inspiring, producing a drive for perfection not often found in time clock punchers who are dehumanized and micromanaged to such a degree they despise their job and those around them. My fondest memories of employment revolve around just such a trust, the likes many will never know. Given an adequately intelligent and resourceful individual, results can be achieved that often aren't, and at a speed that can be unrivaled as decisions are made on the spot as needed.

I had to look up holacracy the other day when you mentioned it. I still haven't had time to read much on it, but the ZAPP program was the closest I've ever experienced to my understanding so far.
