How to connect capitalism and communism

We’re really looking forward to our next Creative Morning (Sep 13, 2013, 08:30) with Monika Frech and Lisa Zoth from Dark Horse. Dark Horse is an innovation consultancy: 30 co-founders from 25 different disciplines, who work together without any hierarchies whatsoever … not even financial ones. “We only have CEOs because we are obliged by law and everybody can and does make strategic decisions. We have an internal award for our best mistakes. Nobody is allowed to work more than three days a week, we all spend the rest of our time in our respective disciplines.”

Monika and Lisa brand themselves as “Generation Y knowledge workers”. “We started a company that combines capitalism and communism, the ideologies that once divided our city. We’ll show at Creative Morning how Dark Horse unites self-reliance with joint decision-making, great differences with total equality and constant change with stable structures. And we explain why our new way of working can be a model for a whole generation.”

Registration for their talk starts coming Monday at 10:00 am.
