This document introduces Sakamun, a software that aims to help companies manage their workforces more efficiently by connecting employees to relevant work, information, and each other. It allows employees to directly prioritize their own work, receive real-time updates, and provide performance reviews of one another. The goal is to turn companies into "living systems" where work flows seamlessly from person to person based on their unique abilities. It also aims to help individuals develop their careers and skillsets. The creators describe themselves as social entrepreneurs seeking to evolve how people and organizations work through technological mutation.

3. What’s Sakamun?

4. Still Searching for the Agile
Enterprise?
“Disassociate what’s hip from people to see the real effects”
“I’m communicating in real-time” leading to “spacing out”
“nagging”, “mobbing”, “loosing the context”,
“producing just words, words, words… wasting time and resources”
“I’m reading my mail” leading to “glazing”
“desperate attempts to consolidate irrelevant information”,
“desperate attempts to understand the claimed relationships
between the people receiving these messages”,
“producing misinformation that neither says “yes” or “no”

5. “Glazing
happens when
there’s too
much
information to
process”
“Getting the job done
happens when you have
all the relevant
information at the
right time”
“Spacing out
happens when
there isn’t enough
information, but a
continuous stream
of details”

6. “Manage your workforce as efficiently as
possible”
“Bring relevant abilities and information
together”
“Realize your firm’s potential”
No more tricks!

8. Feature Overview

9. Turn your employees into
forces of nature

• Preserve a direct communication stream until job completion
“because everyone wants to get rid of the impediments and
carry on with the work”
• Get completion alerts immediately as in “nobody likes
status meetings”
• Incorporate performance reviews into each and every task
“because those yearly meetings just don’t cut it”

11. Turn your company into a
living system
• Don’t draw organization charts, live in them.
• No more orientations! Let everyone immediately
know who and where he/she is.
• Create achievement based career paths and make
them visible at all times.

challenges!

successful salesman of that product type.”

makes a Hi-Res audio player attractive to
expensive smartphone owners”

short meeting to discuss the details.”

much
cleared the
way for
me”

able to
finish this
today?

meeting won’t last
forever?”
“I’ll send
you a
script you
can use”
“…”

16. Have customers review
performance for accuracy
• “Brie is alerted as soon
as Leonardo finishes the
task.”
• “Brie reviews the work
and performs a
performance review
immediately on the spot.”
“Such
professionalism…
and to the point…
He solved most of
my problem
during the
meeting.
Thank you
Leonardo!”
“I didn’t like the
meeting room on
the other hand.”

17. Have employees review
performance for feedback

performance review of the
customer immediately on
the spot as well.”
