On My Vision for Building and Running an Organization

Gather employees’ ideas and opinions.

Share everything about internal issues (including budget and revenue).

  → No concept of “operator,” “department,” or “rank.”


Apply the “five-finger” rule partially: support training activities for new hires.


Not the memoirs of successful people — but the diaries and daily lives of dreamers.

However, pure but blade-sharp and uncompromising.


Organization structure and relationships with external networks.


Internal and external network setup and project operation, like Open Factory.

They respect each other’s diversity and love to learn. So the crowd that belongs to the “O-Pack” tribe shares or teaches their experience in fields they know well. And the O-Pack people, who love poetry, drawing, and art, enjoy absurd ideas together. They never criticize each other, and they always greet each other with a smile.Word spread that someone had come back as an Open Factory member,

so after asking around, I went straight to them and asked about it.

“What does Open Factory do? And where on earth is it?”

The “member” person replied,
“Open Factory, like Mureungdowon (the Korean paradise), isn’t a place that humans can easily find.”
Then, handing me what looked like a yellow talisman,
they said:

“Open Factory isn’t easy to enter,
but if you have this ticket, you can follow the set path with me and find Open Factory.
Still, it might not be easy to see and experience the truly genuine something of Open Factory.”

 
What could that truly genuine thing be?
Because of that odd encounter, overcoming the previous failed exploration,
I ended up heading toward Open Factory with that member.
The path, which had been utterly hard to find before,

this time was found all too easily.
