September 26, 2009 at 16:26Free Corporation v2
I was hooked by the theme of the Free Corporation , but in my opinion, the idea of cf5058 has flaws, for example, very poor motivation of employees.
1. transparent - absolutely all information is open both inside and outside (including what is
usually considered a secret - income, salaries, processes, suppliers, employees)
no patents - everything that is invented is given for use without restrictions;
2. A free corporation does not set as its primary goal profit-making. The mission of a free corporation is to improve the quality of life of people (both consumers and employees)
if closer to life: for example, the release of medicines, the creation of some household items, the creation of useful Internet services
3. profit marginThis is a fixed percentage for research, investment and new projects of the corporation; (provided that these studies, projects and investments are available)
For example: 5% (this is the client’s payment for progress)
4. flexible pricing — as soon as a new technology or process is introduced or something is optimized, the price of a product changes in the same second ... t .k costs have decreased,
however, if something went wrong, the price may rise ... (otherwise someone will be left without a salary)
Pricing formula: Product price = prime cost + 5% of the profit margin for development
is important that any buyer knows what is the price of the product Free Corporation tion formula of the public
5 people(employees): the corporation must constantly think and take care of its employees;
(improve working conditions, everyday life)
Employees of the corporation are like-minded people and ideologically they like honestly working for the benefit of
people and themselves, they like creative activity. They like that the corporation is honest with them and
they know everything that happens and why it is done.
Responsibility of employees as in any company. You work poorly - sanctions, if good - honor and praise, the ability to grow and do more.
Salary at the market level.
Ideas and initiative are encouraged.
6. shareholders / ownersA free corporation has no shareholders. Owners and top managers do not receive bonuses, do not receive dividends, but if they work for the benefit of the corporation, for example, as directors, they receive a salary like all employees. (here is the moment that causes me the most doubt, but if there are no shareholders, then there are no dividends)
Maximum, for the founding fathers - a pension. But it’s better to work with everyone =)
7. the corporation acts exclusively in the legal field and loves the constitution and complies with the law :)
8. Cost reduction is the second goal of every employee of the corporation.
1. personnel: people like to work creatively and earn money when they are honest with them;
they will be drawn to us, but we take only the best
2. customers: again, everyone likes it
when they are honest and open with them and
when they do it for people
when the product or service does not include excessive gratitude (in the form of the rate of profit
which in traditional companies varies from tens to hundreds percent, with rare
exceptions);
cheaper and better
3. well, of course, we do not worry about our inventions - you can use
them for the common good, we will only be happy, but we will try to introduce them
in our products and services. Often, a pioneer has an advantage.
freedom of knowledge and technology
4. Competitiveness is determined by the social vector of the corporation: cheaper,
employees are better, quality may be higher, technologies are open, and methods and ways of
working. (we accept everything: anger, gratitude, rational suggestions, criticism or bugs :)
income taxes will make heat less
traditional companies :)
1. Where does the investment come from if there is no profit (in the form of dividends)?
perhaps in the form of a certain obligation, if the company succeeds, to
pay the amount of investment + risk premium that the investor took upon himself
2. the problem started: someone is very at risk giving money for this “free adventure” :)
risk on one side of the scale on the other hand, to be a pioneer (in my opinion,
this is very significant)
3. reserves and stability - it seems like creating reserves gives the corporation
stability under changing conditions, but reserves can
only be formed at the expense of consumers, increasing the cost of reserves: /
4. with such transparency tee how to make a surprise? ;)
or how to intrigue people with a new product, as Apple sometimes does
5. There is a risk that they will shoot and shake: /
1. Open-sourse, some things are done on the idea;
2. Coworking;
3. can tell me in the comments?
I will offer my free corporation design :-)
