Aaron Dignan sees the same phenomenon everywhere he looks. Our most trusted and important institutions—business, healthcare, government, philanthropy, and beyond – are struggling. They’re confronted with the fact that the scale and bureaucracy that once made them strong are liabilities in an era of constant change.
For the past ten years, he has studied organisations and teams with a new way of working that prioritises adaptivity and autonomy over efficiency and control. Aaron contends that teams everywhere need to join them in the future of work.
As the founder of The Ready, a global organisational transformation and coaching practice, he helps companies large and small adopt new forms of self-organisation and dynamic teaming. Clients include GE, Kaplan, Lloyds Banking Group, Microsoft, Citibank, FreshDirect, Hyatt, Airbnb, Bloomin’ Brands, Charles Schwab, PG&E, Fidelity, New York Public Radio, and charity: water.
Aaron is an active angel investor and helps build partnerships between the startups and end-ups he advises. He has sat on advisory boards for GE, American Express, PepsiCo, Cooper Hewitt National Design Museum, as well as the board of directors for Smashburger.
His latest book, Brave New Work, was published in 2019.
