If I was at a wealthy and powerful self organizing company with all the things I now know, I would have to immediately start a team and grow it then attack some important problem. You can organically do that at a self-organizing firm. You can't just do that at a hierarchical firm

You could say I'm acting as a "Baron". But anybody with the ability to explain the idea and muster the resources can do this. You just do it organically from the bottom-up. It helps to have Sponsor or Baron support, but you don't absolutely require it.

At a hierarchical firm, as a leaf-node worker or even manager this ability to organically form new teams can be virtually impossible. You would need to engage with the secretive hierarchy and ask for permission and resources, and good luck with that.

Central planning doesn't work well, but market principles do. So if enough employees go and form a team to do something, a smart self-organized company will watch the team grow organically and see what happens.

The corporate arm and its resources are there to help this process occur organically. If they interfere and snuff-out organic teams they are going against the principles of self-organization. "Overwatch" team feedback is fine, but remember the system is delicate and fragile.
