The sociocratic approach emphasizes human-centeredness and forming communities where everyone’s voice is respected. While technically about governance, decision-making, and distributed leadership, sociocracy mirrors the focus on human development central to other methodologies like Lean and Agile. However, the digital future presents a mechanistic approach – contrasting with the organic, emergent thinking of sociocracy. Despite this, sociocracy contributes to a vision of workplaces as collaborative environments of self-development, learning, and joy. Therefore, diversity of methods should coexist, providing balanced ingredients toward creating human-first workplaces.
