Self-management isn’t just a structure – it’s a mindset. When employees are empowered, the business thrives. At EPPO Cidades Inteligentes, a family-owned waste company in Brazil, individual development drives business success. Led by Rodrigo Ventre, EPPO has transformed from a traditional hierarchy into a self-managing, purpose-driven powerhouse with 1,000+ employees.

Survey fatigue? We’ve all been there. You pour time into answering the same old questions, results get summarized into a neat little graph, and… then what? A new survey comes around, nothing really changes, and your input gets buried in charts that don’t tell the whole story. 😑 What if we told you there’s a better way to make sure that voice matters — instead of more surveys, create real conversations that drive action. 👇 #employeeengagement #agiletransformation #futureofwork

We’re excited to introduce some updates to our "tag" feature that will help you guide and structure conversations more effectively and get to the point faster. 🎯 🎉 New Tag Features: Make Your Co-Creation Sessions Even Better! 🎉 What’s new? 1️⃣ Easier Tag Management: Quickly add, change, or delete tags on any input, giving you more flexibility to adjust as the conversation evolves. 2️⃣ Refreshed Color System: Enjoy a more intuitive and visually engaging experience with our updated color scheme. 3️⃣ Improved Posting Flow: Select your tag before writing your post, making it easier to stay on topic and contribute meaningfully. Why tags? Tags are a powerful tool for facilitators to structure a board and steer discussions in a constructive direction. They help categorize inputs, ensuring everyone stays aligned and focused. 🧭 Think of it like running a retrospective: participants can post their thoughts directly into categories — keeping the conversation organized and productive! 💬 Build better organizations, together! Through improved collaboration. With Nyord. #agiletransformation #newwaysofworking #changemanagement

Why Listening to Your Team Beats Relying on Experts. Every. Single. Time. In the early 1900s, a British scientist named Francis Galton witnessed a bizarre contest at a fair: 800 people guessing the weight of an ox. Farmers, butchers, and regular folks scribbled their guesses — some had expertise, others had none. When the dust settled, Galton discovered the average guess was just one pound off the actual weight. The crowd had outsmarted the experts. This isn’t just a quirky story. It’s a proven phenomenon, called “wisdom of crowds”, explored by many studies. And it's like a blueprint for modern organizations: Need a new product strategy? Figuring out where to allocate resources? Or just trying to get better every day? The collective wisdom of your team consistently beats the guesswork of a few "heroes." Why? Because of math. Each person’s guess is a blend of knowledge (experience, knowledge, intuition) and error (wrong assumptions, unknowns, noise). When you pool enough guesses, the errors cancel out, leaving behind pure insight. But for this magic to work, you need three things: - Your people need some real knowledge — no fluff. - Independence is critical — no talking, no groupthink. Hell, no more meetings. - Diversity matters — different perspectives equal more insight. Bottom line: Your team already holds a nearly complete picture of your organization’s reality — its health, strengths, weaknesses, and competitive edge. Meanwhile, management alone? They’re just guessing. ____ At Nyord, we build on these principles because we believe in the power of collective intelligence. Want to see it in action?

We’ve got some updates to share that will make organizing your board in steps smoother and more flexible. 🙌 🔄 Feature Update: Make Your Board Work Your Way! Why steps? Because managing a co-creation processes is much easier when you break things down into steps, such as generating insights, brainstorming ideas, or testing concepts. Each step takes you through a diverging phase (where you gather all kinds of ideas, topics, or feedback) and a converging phase (where everyone gets to rate and rank what matters most). By building each step on the results of the previous one, you can effectively guide the group through any type of challenge. What’s new? 1️⃣ Simpler Actions: We’ve simplified things with just two action types: 👉 Collect Inputs is your go-to for brainstorming sessions—everyone can share their thoughts and ideas. 👉 Run Experiments is all about testing and learning—specific roles can post experiments, and everyone else can rate and discuss the results. 2️⃣ More Flexibility: Now, instead of choosing from a dropdown, you can name each step however you like. This means you get to set things up exactly how you want. We heard from many of you that there are tons of ways to use the tool, so wanted to make it even more flexible. You can now map out any approach you love (#DesignThinking, #LeanCoffee) or make up something totally new! 🌟 We’re excited to see the creative ways you’ll use this feature! Stay tuned for more, and keep the great ideas coming! 🎉

So, Nyord is running. In safe-mode though, for our pilot customers only. But we need to start somewhere, right? So, this is the beginning ...👇 We want to start talking to you, discuss, converse, collaborate and co-create. You are our friends, customers and followers. ❤️ What about to start with a step thesis, actually two: 1. Change projects fail. 2. Employee engagement fails, too. Both hover around a 30% success rate, in average. No, that is not a typo. That's actually 🤯! It is a huge waste of energy, emotion and money! Don't you agree? I wonder how to make work better for the individual and move the organization forward at the same time. Some of our ideas, hints, suggestions ... see below. But we are curious to hear yours. https://lnkd.in/e9VypgVJ
