In future, Bagchi hopes to create many roles that would have nothing to do with seniority, title, power, or entitlement, but focus on long-standing issues and make an impact without depending on structural sanctions.
MindTree has committed to support this endeavor for five years. However, there will be a "stock-taking" in February next year.
Apart from leadership, the other key thing for an organisation is size. This requires what Bagchi terms "active deconstruction". How do you make an organisation all the while effectively smaller, even as it becomes larger?
One way is to look at the organisation as a "community of communities". So, people are not required to belong to or identify with a monolith. They can engage with and participate in a community of their own choice. They can define its agenda, its leadership and all that is voluntary. Volunteerism begets innovation.
