In traditional companies, everything is built on a clear hierarchy: decisions are made at the top and executed at the bottom. This approach might work in a stable environment, but for an IT startup, especially in AI, it stifles growth.
IT companies need adhocracy: a management model where competence and results are valued more than titles. It’s about flexibility over bureaucracy and speed over approvals. The value of an idea is judged by its effectiveness, not by the position of its author.
At the Mozgii Ecosystem startup, we build our work on this exact principle. Our days are filled with live, productive dialogues, not endless meetings. We hold short, intense sessions that lead to quick feedback on daily progress and a clear path to tangible results.
This model demands maturity from the team. There is no room for excuses like “I wasn’t told” or “I didn’t know.” Everyone takes responsibility for the outcome.
But it is precisely in such an environment that effective solutions are born. It’s essential to build a living, adaptive system that can keep pace with the world of AI, which is changing faster than regulations can be written.
