  20. The Democratic Workplace • Relationships are adult-to-adult, not parent-to-child. • Leadership happens at every level of the organization, not just at the top. • You're paid for the value you bring to the organization, not your job title. • Everyone knows to whom and for what they're accountable. • Transparency isn't considered scary. • Formality and polices are avoided in favor of informality and principles. • Humor and having fun is actually encouraged. • You can access real-time financial information about your organization's performance anytime you want. • Change = life, not death. • The employee manual can be summed up in one sentence: "Use common sense!“ • You look forward to meetings where you can collaborate and share ideas. • There's a spirit of ownership in every project in which you're involved. • You either helped create or strongly share in the organization's purpose and vision statements. • Incentives aren't used to motivate employees - meaningful work is. • You never have to ask to go to the bathroom. • Your life outside of work is as valued as your life at work. • You receive real-time, ongoing constructive feedback from your co-workers, and you're often publicly acknowledged for excellent work. • Failure is seen as a right-of-passage to success. • Thinking differently and challenging assumptions is encouraged. • Alignment comes from a shared sense of purpose, not automatic agreement. • Your job is one of your favorite places to be.
