Case Study: Raise scales self-managing recruitment with Loomio

Raise scales self-managing decisions across 450 staff with Loomio

Raise, a 60-year-old recruiting company, faced the challenge of transforming from a traditional hierarchical structure into a self-managing organization. They wanted to scale this new model to 450 staff across three countries, eliminating positional authority and giving every employee an equal voice in decisions. To achieve this, they adopted Loomio as their central platform for proposing, debating, and documenting decisions.

By implementing Loomio, Raise embedded a transparent decision-making architecture that aligned with their new self-managing practices. The solution enabled any employee to propose and debate ideas, regardless of seniority, and created a clear record of every team decision. Loomio was crucial in scaling their "Teal Operating System," which resulted in a significant increase in employee morale and satisfaction. This impact was measurable, as the company was named the second-best midsize business for employee satisfaction in all of Canada for two consecutive years.
