LA TRIBU DE LES PETITES I MITJANES EMPRESES

Molt bon article a RibbonFarm que analitza la organització de les startups des d'una perspectiva antropològica:

Tribal psychology dominates in mid-sized organizations — between 10 and 1000 employees, let’s say. These two numbers flank Dunbar’s number (roughly 150) by an order of magnitude on each side. Dunbar’s number is the “cognitive limit to the number of people with whom one can maintain stable social relationships,” and serves as a good midpoint for the size of organizations we’re going to look at. Below 10 employees, all you have is a simple working group. Above 1000 you’ll start to need “more restrictive rules, laws, and enforced norms to maintain a stable, cohesive group.” Between those two is where the tribe lies.
