Самоуправление едва не стоило нам бизнеса | Евгений Лебасов

Is it possible to ruin a successful company by sincerely following the principles of self-organization? At the 2026 Live Company, Evgeny Lebasov shared the story of his own business: from inspiration by self-management and strategic sessions to a crisis, the decision to close a plant, and a rethinking of his entire approach to management. What turned out to be wrong with the ideas of self-organization? Why did good intentions lead to dire consequences? And which principles truly help build a sustainable company? In the video: • why self-organization is not a universal solution; • how to distinguish genuine principles of self-management from dangerous misconceptions; • what happens to a company when managerial responsibility disappears; • how to survive a crisis and learn practical lessons from it; • why an honest analysis of one's own mistakes is more valuable than beautiful success stories. *** Evgeny Lebasov is an entrepreneur, the head of several manufacturing and service companies, and a practitioner of implementing modern management approaches. "Living Company" is an annual conference dedicated to modern approaches to management, self-organization, organizational development, and leadership.
