Make It Work tours the world to meet pioneer companies that work differently
Why?
One bright day, we got to wonder if it was possible to work differently and if companies, other than the classical, hierarchical ones that we knew, existed...
This quest was motivated by several questions: why don't we seem to enjoy current and mainstream organizations? Engagement at work is low and the question of purpose is becoming crucial : shouldn't we be questioning the way we work?
So, we decided to go on a mission to meet companies that work (sorry for the pun) with different rules and have a clear purpose. Those that are crazy enough to rethink what we know to be true about organizations. Those that put trust, responsibility and freedom as their core principles. Those that imagine something beyond pyramidal and rigid structures.
We mean, organizations that are really attractive.
Our goal with Make it Work? Show that these companies exist and explain how they work.
The "Future Of Work" term is omnipresent these days. A buzzword filled with big promises and... let's face it: a bit of bullshit. We go beyond theory and shine a light on real-life examples of pioneers who rethink and reinvent organizations by meeting all of those who work for them.
It's time we gave pioneer companies the voice they deserve!
Utopists you say?
We'll see!
In any case, welcome to make it work
Where are the pioneers?
The Make it Work adventure started in September 2019 in Paris, France, where we met with 65+ changemakers.
From February 2020 to March 2020, we visited pioneers in Brazil. Then the world stopped and we came back to France.
Still, we wanted to explore companies. So we left for a smaller, Europe Tour, in July and August 2020, visiting Germany, The Netherlands and Sweden.

We were tired to hear about "the Future Of Work" without really knowing what it entails in real life, so, we decided to go and find out on our own...
