Tribal Business: A Message To The Jobless
We live in a world where a greed-driven system of hierarchy leads to unfair income gaps. Our culture seems fixated on a top-down economic approach to solving all problems, as we have seen with the financial bailout of Wall Street that has yet to trickle down to Main Street. Some businesses are beginning to see that this approach is no longer the most productive for their enterprise, nor does it encourage a happy work place.
At PermaculturePros, we conduct ourselves as a tribal business, where all of the founders have equal shares but decidedly different roles, while some of our technicians also have an ownership stake. In this respect, we all feel equal responsibility and share in the fruits of our collective effort. Admittedly, this is an experimental and idealistic way to start a company, for which there are not many modern examples to follow.
However, in many early civilizations, there was no hierarchical governance; the tribe members simply had different job titles according to their skills and passions. The chief had the burden of final decision making, the doctor kept the tribe healthy, and skilled hunters provided food – but no one acquired more material wealth for their efforts than did another. Most importantly, the wellbeing of each individual was recognized as essential to the overall survival, health, and happiness of the tribe.
In business today, two major companies present themselves as attempting to build such a model: Google and Ben & Jerry’s. Google has created a work atmosphere with fitness centers, daycare facilities, employee lounges, cafes, and much more. Furthermore, they give their engineers 20% of their paid time to work on pet projects that they are passionate about, and reward them with a stake in the outcome. Ben & Jerry’s also provides an enjoyable work environment, plus the owners have capped their income according to the income of all employees while offering ownership to each. Both of these companies are wildly successful and productive, while setting an example for others to follow.
Job creation seems to be the mantra of the day. It is amazing how dependent we are on someone else creating jobs to sustain us. We need a job for our very existence, and once we have that job, many of us feel trapped in it just to survive. A system of hierarchy, by design, creates jobs that are often nothing more than indentured servitude of passionless tasks that barely provide a respectable living wage to those on the lower rungs of the ladder. Entrepreneurs now have the power to break the prevailing system of hierarchy by creating a circular (tribal) business model, instead of a vertical one.
When you read about successful and happy people, you’ll find that their success was usually a bi-product of their passion. Many times they created an organization or business on the side while working for someone else, and their passion drove those organizations to amazing heights.
Suggestions for those who are unemployed:
• State what you are passionate about
• Study how others are making money in similar endeavors
• Find others who share your passion (create a tribe)
• Determine a way to profit from your passion
• Create a blog, online group, or newsletter
• Brainstorm, coordinate, and plan with your tribe
• Think positively and believe in yourself
• Have fun, but be professional
Increasingly, it appears that new job creation within the current system is unlikely for quite some time to come. While unemployed, use your time and frustration to create something out of your passion. A measured, dedicated approach is the most likely route to success, happiness, independence, and a lasting business endeavor of your own. It won't happen overnight, but when you follow your passion, time will fly.
