Since people are talking about #sensemaking, self-selection of personalities, and organizational #psychology, an easy assessment to test is turning the #OrgChart upside down and evaluating the emotional reaction & logical response: https://www.superversive.co/essays/history-of-the-org-chart

A useful shortcut for evaluating whether a colleague, vendor, or prospect is not a sociopath and worthy of continued collaboration is to have them imagine the typical #OrgChart turned upside down.
So far, after hundreds of interpersonal experiments, this heuristic has not failed.
The people who reject the traditional command-and-control image tend to seek power & authority, rather than responsibility & accountability.
2 of my go-to symptoms of an #organization in #trouble are:
1. the coffee/tea isn't free anymore. We're talking a few $hundred / month here and it ain't gonna save the company if you claw it back.
2. the #orgchart can't be found. Either: it changes so rapidly (which is another bad sign), or because noone can be arsed to update it.
Not a huge thing, just something that when you need it you need it NOW and it is aggravating when it takes you 45m to figure out who does Accounts Payable.

@fedora Org Chart: Now updated! https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/fedora-org-chart-now-updated/ #OrgChart
Hey, do we have an updated #orgchart? The one in our wiki is like 3 yrs out of date.
*It will be in our new #Intranet site*.
Is our new Intranet site available?
*No, but it will be soon.*
You've been saying that for the last nineteen months. Can I just have a copy?
*No because its not a PowerPoint we did it in the new Google Site.*
Can you share the new Google Site - or just the "org chart" page?
*No, its not ready to go live yet.*
