Description

Organizational archetypes are recurring patterns that reveal how dysfunction takes root and persists. In this episode, Scott Wozniak, CEO of Swoz Consulting, breaks down some of the most common dysfunction types he’s encountered while helping companies scale. From the reactionary chaos of the “Firefighting Factory” to the rigid habits of the “Fortress,” Scott explores how leaders can identify these patterns and start engineering healthier operations. He also explains how industry pressures and founder personalities shape culture more than many leaders realize, and why “diagnosing the disease” is always step one.
