  • Summary

  • The text explores the concept of "subsidiarity" as a management tool, promoting a bottom-up approach to decision-making and responsibility. The authors, Ian Wilders and Joan Kingsland, advocate for aligning individual missions with a company's overall purpose, empowering employees to take ownership of their work and allocate resources effectively. The book uses anecdotes from Wilders' experience as CEO to illustrate how subsidiarity can foster a culture of trust, autonomy, and transparency, leading to greater efficiency, resilience, and adaptability. It also emphasises the importance of the "common good," where employees consider the impact of their decisions on the wider organisation and its stakeholders.
