Abstract

Companies that embrace organizational democracy - operating a company on freedom, rather than fear and control - are building healthier and more innovative workplaces while boosting the bottom line. DaVita, a Denver-based Fortune 500 company, provides a case study of how democracy can work even in a large company. Democratically run companies are also becoming a force for social change, creating a ripple-effect that advances human development, peace, and economic prosperity worldwide, proving that how a company works is just as important as what it does. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.
