For the second article in this series on Managing with Open Values, I spoke with
DeLisa Alexander, Executive Vice President and Chief People Officer at Red Hat,
specifically about how managing with open values works in that organization.
DeLisa's team recently created and open sourced a new resource—the Open
Management Practices—to help Red Hat managers understand their roles in an open
organization and to empower Red Hat associates to help those managers practice
openness.

* How open is your organization?
I spoke with DeLisa, a 19-year veteran of Red Hat, about what led to the
creation of the practices, how she and her team developed them, and how the
organization plans to integrate them into its manager competencies. DeLisa came
to Red Hat with a legal background and began her career at the company as inside
counsel. The legal field is very hierarchical and not too open in its values
(due in part to the confidentiality required of counsel). In our interview,
DeLisa explains how, over the course of her career, she's been able to grow and
guide the development of Red Hat's "bottom-up" organization.
I've transcribed parts of our interview below and edited them for readability.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Heidi: This interview series is about "managing with open values," and one of
the first questions we've been asking interviewees is: What does that mean to
you, to "manage according to open values"? As the executive overseeing the
People team at Red Hat, why is this issue important to you?
DeLisa: Red Hat started as a movement, in part because of the internet and the
connected, democratic nature the technology brought with it. Red Hat hired top
contributors of open source communities, which meant that these associates, now
hired into decision making roles, were "infused with open"—they lead like
community members, not conventional executives. The expectation was that the
culture supported collaboration, participation, and community—the values of the
open source community. They brought the culture with them, in other words.
Upholding and catalyzing this culture via the body of community members into a
profitable company is very important, and very different from proprietary
software companies.
Heidi: That's so interesting, because as a relatively new Red Hatter I didn't
really see that connection as clearly as you explain it. Now I can better
understand the passion that a movement started while intersecting with a
corporate culture.
DeLisa: Yes. Having come from the law I felt the same way, and it took me a
while to realize how it worked and what the expectations were.
As I navigated my way in the open source community culture, we started to see
that those who were not coming from Red Hat communities didn't know how to
navigate this new culture. So, we created the Open Decision Framework (ODF) to
help them grow and align to Red Hat values.
Associates and leaders with decision making responsibilities needed to
understand and practice open source practices because our culture is so
important. In addition, when you use the ODF, you get better and more creative
decisions—that might take longer to get, but then you don't have the change
management, like at other companies, after the fact. The transparency offered by
the framework aligned with the cultural expectations of the community. When
people don't get what they expect, that's when things blow up. So the ODF helps
associates and leaders navigate working and decision making in the Red Hat
community in ways they expect.
Heidi: So Red Hat is essentially an open source community culture at scale.
DeLisa: Yes. Over time, we have had to develop and grow in ways that are
consistent with our values. We've created tools and had projects that used open
tools to do that. For example, when we created our "Why," our shared purpose,
the proposed plan was going to take a year before it opened to the associates.
The focus of the proposal was on the leaders coming up with it in a closed
room—which wouldn't work at Red Hat. But we decide to involve the associates and
do the change management synchronously with the activity. The power of
participation will create something amazing (when it's important to do) for Red
Hat, but you have to take it on faith, and you don't know when it's going to be
done. The iterative process means that project plans are less defined and you
have to trust: when it's baked, it's baked. You have to lean into the instinct
that you will know when it's baked.
Heidi: From my own experience, I can see and feel that, from the associate
perspective, there are large gains by being able to participate. But what are
the benefits to the managers themselves when they manage with open values?
DeLisa: One of the most important values of open source community members is
that they want to contribute right away; there is a meritocracy where title
doesn't matter. That's important and that's also what Millennials expect for
themselves. Millennials are working this way now. That means that managers at
Red Hat had to learn how to manage Millennial-like people 20 years before
Millennials came into the workforce! There is a significant advantage in that,
because it helps to create a highly engaged workforce where people have a part
in making a great team and a great organization. Managers also develop associate
capabilities: their skill, their understanding of context, and purpose. Managers
are helping "develop these muscles' [in their associates] while creating a
learning zone at the same time.

Listen to DeLisa describe the importance and benefits of managing with open
values
Heidi: In this way, managers are creating their own succession plans, because
there isn't an us/them context that some conventional organizations have about
leadership. In my experience working at conventional organizations, there is a
distinct disjointedness between leaders and associates—either you are In the
club, or you are not. Where there are open values, leaders and associates are
one and the same, or at least the boundary is less distinct.
DeLisa: When I took this job, everyone was a leader. You might be a manager, a
role that manages people, but everyone was expected to be a leader. We have
tried to carefully define "leader" so that we don't lose the concept and impact
the meritocracy.
Heidi: We've talked a little bit about the growth of Red Hat, and I wonder how
you and your team have scaled the role of manager, and managing with open
values, across the large and growing organization. What does it look like and
what strategies are you working on?
DeLisa: As you know, things always look and work a little differently at Red
Hat. Our competency model, for instance, helps people know what good looks like
in their roles, and then we created the Open Decision Framework to help leaders
make decisions in an open way. But we found that managers didn't understand what
was expected of them in an open organization. Some brought with them ways of
working from their former companies. And yet, as a people manager, they are a
key leverage point for Red Hat, essentially responsible for supporting talent.
The experience of the associate is greatly influenced by their manager and when
you don't have managers who don't manage with open values, then the associates
are not getting the full experience of working at an open organization.
We started at the beginning, asking ourselves "If everyone is a leader, do we
even need people managers?" And we decided we needed the manager role. There are
too many operationalization points regarding hiring, development, performance,
etc. Our next step was the practices (do's and don'ts) and mindsets for
managers. The Do's and Don'ts were communicated to Red Hat as a whole to get
feedback, including all the geos, using a global face-to-face tour. These became
the six Open Management Practices.
Heidi: Of the six Open Management Practices, which do you feel is most
important?
DeLIsa: Probably the one that is most important to us today is "Creating an
environment of respect, belonging, and mutual support." It is foundational for
meritocracy and the idea that people can contribute even if their style of
thinking, language, or remote work are differences. People need to feel like
they belong because every associate has to feel comfortable contributing at our
very, very best. This is on my mind all the time because there is a lot of
research about it, one book for instance is The Fearless Organization by Amy C.
Edmonson. Meritocracy is not just "being nice." It is linked to the learning
organization—fail fast and often— and this is how the world's problems are
getting solved these days.
Heidi: So we've talked about how the Open Management Practices benefit both
associates and managers, and I'm curious about the topic of accountability. How
is Red Hat helping to make managers and associates accountable for using these
practices?
DeLisa: That's a great question and a hotly debated topic within my team. Part
of the genesis for the Open Management Practices was to create accountability
between associates and managers. We asked ourselves "how can we help people to
want to be accountable?" We can't legislate this. These practices can't be done
"because the People team told me to." We need to inspire ownership, so we made
the idea of ownership part of the workshop conversation. The tool helps build a
competence—"what good looks like"—by defining the practice. So, the People team
asked managers, "Once you are enabled, would you be committed to these
practices?" and 97% said "yes"! Therefore, we focused on enabling them knowing
that the ownership and accountability would follow.

Management Practices
In addition, the No. 1 request in the workshop was for a 360-degree feedback
mechanism. We are excited to partner with TILT365 [Red Hat's vendor for
personality style testing] to create a multi-factor survey that helped identify
a questionnaire for management feedback. This makes the whole model and process
very transparent. Associates know what the do's and don'ts for management
practices are, and managers have feedback; leaders can support development plans
for their managers. All this creates a full, virtuous cycle because the Open
Management Practices created a path for managers to commit to their own
development.

accountability
Heidi: That's really interesting! I can see how the definition of the practices
helped people understand what they were committing to, and the workshops and
using the Open Decision Framework to get feedback from Red Hatters at all
levels, helped to create the commitment needed in a natural way, as an obvious
extension of the activity.
DeLisa, thank you for your time! I appreciate your taking the time to speak with
me today.
