About Sam Spurlin

I work at The Ready, a self-managing organization design consultancy focused on changing how the world works.Every leader knows that change is needed. To eliminate or avoid bureaucracy, we must discover and scale new ways of working that prioritize autonomy, agility, and impact. There’s just one problem: change management doesn’t work. We can’t reinvent our organizations with the same predict-and-control ethos that we’re trying to escape. We need to start the way we mean to finish—with an emergent and participatory approach. We need to ask every employee: “What’s stopping you from doing the best work of your life?” and give them the tools and the power to reimagine the way they work.

Sam Spurlin Work Experience Details
  • The Ready
    Partner
    The Ready Sep 2015 - Present
    Fully Distributed Across The U.S. And Europe, Oo
    I joined The Ready as the first full-time employee. It has been an honor to help build an organization design consulting firm that is charting a new path in organization transformation. We become trusted advisors and partners to our clients while simultaneously diving deep into facilitation, team and individual coaching, and advising. Over the past six years I have advised and partnered with executives across industries to help them step into new ways of working and leading. Through these partnerships I have helped create and nurture change across all types of organizations -- both in size and type.
  • Undercurrent
    Strategist
    Undercurrent Jul 2015 - Aug 2015
    Global, Us
    I was drawn to Undercurrent while studying for my PhD in positive organizational psychology. I never intended to work for anyone but myself but reading about the work they were doing was transformative. For the first time I saw a company talking about the future of work the way I talked about the future of work. They weren't soulless consultants building endless decks but creative humanists who wanted to create better organizations for people -- and for the world. I made it my goal to get hired by this company and after 9 months of phone calls, subtle (or not so subtle) Twitter stalking, and intense personal growth I convinced them to hire me. I moved to New York to start work and unfortunately three weeks later the company dissolved (which is a long story in itself). My short time at Undercurrent was the jumping off point for a.) a career I absolutely love and b.) a surprising number of friendships with some of the smartest and kindest people I know.
  • Lead Labs
    Research Lead & Leadership Coach
    Lead Labs Sep 2013 - 2015
    Claremont, Ca, Us
    LeAD Labs was a student run hybrid research lab and consulting company led by Dr. Becky Reichard. My role was to help lead the Research arm of this organization (hence the "Research Lead") title as well as engage with the consulting side of the house as a Leadership Coach. We had several contracts, notably with the Getty Leadership Institute, to provide leadership coaching to museum executives around the country.
  • Claremont Graduate University
    Teaching Assistant, Foundations Of Positive Psychology And Positive Organizational Psychology
    Claremont Graduate University Aug 2012 - 2015
    Claremont, Ca, Us
    I served as one of a couple Teaching Assistants for Drs. Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi and Jeanne Nakamura during my time as a PhD student living and working on campus in Claremont, CA. I did the usual Teaching Assistant things; working with students, grading papers, helping administer the class, and generally acting as the liaison between the students and the professors. Most notably, this allowed me to spend more time with one of my academic heroes, Dr. Csikszentmihalyi, which was worth so much more than the stipend I was paid to perform this role. Truly a memorable experience to get to know him better.
  • The Workologist Coaching & Consulting
    Founder
    The Workologist Coaching & Consulting 2011 - 2015
    During my time as a full-time graduate student I maintained my own website and small consulting practice. On the writing side of things, I regularly published articles about personal development, organizational psychology, and positive psychology. This website helped me find consulting and coaching projects, including the opportunity to work on a several month project with the David Allen Company. This project eventually culminated in much of the material that found its way into chapter 14 of the revised edition of Getting Things Done by David Allen (and thus my inclusion in the Acknowledgements section).
  • Tedxclaremontcolleges
    Co-Curator
    Tedxclaremontcolleges Oct 2011 - Apr 2014
    Almost immediately upon moving to Claremont, CA to start graduate school I got involved with the organization that organized the TEDxClaremontColleges event. After helping organize the first half-day event in October 2011 I was offered the opportunity to lead the whole organization as we expanded the program into full-day events in 2012 and 2014.
  • Avondale High School
    Teacher
    Avondale High School Sep 2009 - Apr 2011
    I substitute taught for the better part of two years at Avondale High School. What started as periodic short-term substitute positions eventually turned into an emergency long-term substitute position where I was asked to fully take over for an ailing teacher, on no notice, for more than three months. I don't care what else I end up doing in my career -- this will hands down be the most stressful work situation I will ever experience. I'm sure of it. I survived. The kids seemed to learn some stuff. But I learned that I did not want to make high school teaching my career. Hence, the jump to graduate school and everything else you see above.
