Large corporations have traditionally treated employees as resources to optimize, prioritizing shareholders over other stakeholders. However, this approach is becoming unsustainable and causing mental health and effectiveness issues. New business models like crowdsourcing and freelancing are emerging and competing with traditional corporations. While companies recognize the threat of change, they underestimate how quickly the tipping point will arrive. BizHealthCheck provides visibility into relationships in an organization, a voice for employees, and tools to transition from old hierarchical power structures to new models based on relationships and shared power in time to avoid disruption.

How the canary got its voice BizHealthCheck.biz
When the world industrialised, it got very good at managing and optimising resources: land, money, raw materials. And people.
We began to treat people as another resource to be used. Human resources.
And we prioritised the shareholder over all of the other stakeholders in the business
Now were moving to a massively connected, people economy. Our techniques are less effective
In fact the optimisation of humans in the first world is causing - massive mental health & quality of life issues - massive ineffectiveness Its unsustainable.
New business models and economies are emerging (crowdsourcing, shared, circular, freelance) and eating the corporate organisations lunch
Whats invisible to the big companies? They know about the threat of change from new the models. But theyre under-estimating the speed of their maturity and how fast the tipping point will arrive. Theyre completely unprepared. Many employees would leave if they had a better option. That better option is arriving.
Good news! Most employees want to be part of the solution (or would if they thought the solution was real not BS)
Whats missing for the corporation? - Visibility of the health of relationships - Prioritisation of relationships - An approach / culture that supports intra- and inter-team relationships
Whats missing for the people? - Adult to adult organisational design - An adult voice - Belief that a more meaningful work life is possible
What BizHealthCheck gives is: - visibility of the relationships in the business - a voice for people - tools to move from old power to new power (fast enough to head off the tipping point)
As hierarchical power goes down over time Team and individual power and responsibility goes up BHC facilitates the beginning of the phased process of maturity Old power Hierarchical New power Relationship
