### Open Data Organization

Would love to work on [a company/cooperative focused on Open Data](https://github.com/datonic) with the following ideals:

- Small core team ([5-15 persons](https://x.com/kepano/status/1706690014657274201))
- Remote-first, Asynchronous communications first
- No managers or PMs
- Transparent decision-making
- Profit-sharing among the team

- [Apolitical](https://twitter.com/naval/status/1263322014372130817) work environment is hard to maintain. Choose your company battles and causes.
- Managers will hire more managers as the team scales and that creates new teams. Teams will fight to justify their existence. Beware of this build-up inertia.

- [The art of org design is essentially effective iteration towards form-context fit. You need four sub-skills to do effective iteration](https://commoncog.com/blog/org-design-skill/). To get good at org design, you need to build more accurate models of the people in your org, learn how they respond to [[incentives]], and in build enough power and credibility to get your org changes to take place.
- Internally, you should not "sell", but truth seek.
- Transparency is a vital value. Transparency gets people to treat the company as their own.
