BetterMeans - Open and Democratic Project Management

We need a new agreement of how we work together.

How we make decisions. How we decide on who gets to work on what. And who gets paid what.

Groups of people can work together intelligently, without getting bogged down in endless meetings, or slow decision making. No bossing needed.

Open source software and Wikipedia, are just two examples of large groups working together efficiently without fixed hierarchy.

Bettermeans lets you use the same decision-making rules, and self-organizing principles behind open source to run your project.

This is far out. I will be doing a review in depth soon, at  workmedia.ly with synopsis at stoweboyd.com.

About me

Social anthropologist, clairvoyant, postfuturist.

My work is social tools and their impact on media, business, and society.

I am made greater by the sum of my connections, and so are my connections.
