5. How does working for a teal organization differ from a traditional organization?
A TEAL organization is a decentralized business model that promotes both autonomy and collaboration. Expect less micro-management, top-down directives, and fixed roles. Expect more team decision-making, ownership over your tasks, and room to innovate. As such, this model is usually the best fit for people who are motivated self-starters, well-disciplined, and are comfortable with technology and working outside of the traditional office environment.
