There’s obviously a lot written on how to implement self-organization from the perspective of individuals who lead organizations or at least have the ability to make the decision to move to a self-organization model.

I’m interested in the idea from the perspective of the people that are coming from the once-followers positions in the organization. At our company we often talk about previous organization baggage for new employees — the (bad) habits, assumptions, work approach, experiences, ways of working etc. that come from previous jobs.

A question that would be great to answer: how to prepare current or new employees for the transition to self-organization? I’ve found it to be difficult for employees that have become accustomed to the command and control approach.
