** Leadership Weekly
------------------------------------------------------------
This Leadership Weekly looks at how managerial structures and languages can perpetuate inequality—and, critically, how we must transform these systems to promote democratic, reciprocal, and egalitarian organizations. First, we think through how Human Resources has not been designed to treat workers as humans but as capital, and how in a post-pandemic world—when work is being radically reimagined—we can change this. We then explore lessons nonprofits can learn from worker cooperatives to apply democratic managerial practices in a systematic way. Another article explores how nonprofits should think of social, intellectual, and cultural capital not as sources of extraction but as resources to be shared and amplified, with the aim of shifting from an order of extraction to one of reciprocity. Finally, we dive into a historical account of how modern managerial structures and data practices are founded on principles tied to the legacy of slavery.
