THE OCTOCRACY – A New Leadership Paradigm
Transforming Organizations through LP3 and Octocracy

David Fiorucci, CEO and Founder of LP3 AG, will present his groundbreaking concept of “OCTOCRACY” and LP3 at BBForum 2025. This innovative approach to leadership, strategic management, and organizational structures marks a new era in leading teams and organizations, enabling you to unlock the full potential of your business and achieve significant improvements in efficiency and results. 

Discover how this concept is transforming the way companies are led worldwide and enhance your organization.

THE OCTOCRACY is built on the idea that distributing power throughout an organization, while maintaining essential leadership, can drive both individual and collective success. It emphasizes coherence between strategic and operational aspects and promotes simplicity in processes and communication. By prioritizing the development of all stakeholders, Octocracy model builds organizations that are not only effective but also resilient and inclusive, transforming organizational structures worldwide.

David Fiorucci has thirty years’ experience of leading teams, both in SMEs and in large Swiss and international companies. He developed the LP3 approach and, in 2016, founded his company, LP3 AG, based in Switzerland and active internationally with licensed trainers all over the world. 

He directs the EMBA leadership program – Digital Leadership program at HWZ, Zurich University of Applied Sciences in Business Administration. He is a member of the Advisory Board of ASFC, the Swiss Association for Executive Education as well as a member of the consultative committee (Beirat) of the Swiss Management Training Association (Schweizerische Vereinigung für Führungsausbildung).

Before founding LP3 AG, David held pivotal senior management roles at The Swiss Life Group, where he was the driving force behind the company’s digital transformation as Head of Learning & Development. He also spearheaded Corporate Training and e-learning at Swiss Post, setting new standards for employee development. Earlier in his career, David’s innovative work in the R&D lab at Câbles Cortaillod (Alcatel, now Nexans) laid the groundwork for cutting-edge advancements in the industry.

Initially, David pursued physics at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL). However, his interests soon shifted, leading him to study chemical engineering at the Ecole d’Ingénieurs in Fribourg. This pivotal decision paved the way for significant achievements, including securing a PATENT for conductive polymers with Monsanto.

David’s early career was marked by innovation at Câblerie de Cortaillod. His dedication to research and development there earned him a European patent and led to opportunities to lecture and appear in media. Driven by a desire for continuous learning and making a substantial impact, he expanded his expertise through further education. David delved into environmental management, adult education, quality systems, strategic management, and ethics, broadening his knowledge and influence in various fields.

David has earned recognition for his significant contributions to leadership and innovation with development and implementation of Octocracy, a concept promoting distributed leadership and agile organizational structures.  This innovative approach distributes power throughout the organization while maintaining essential leadership, integrating aspects of holacracy but with a more balanced approach. 

By focusing on these principles, Fiorucci is redefining what it means to be a successful leader in today’s complex business environment. Through his vision, David is paving the way for a NEW GENERATION OF LEADERS who prioritize the well-being and development of their teams, creating a more dynamic and responsive corporate culture. 

THE OCTOCRACY model is revolutionizing traditional corporate structures, promoting an innovative model that supports both individual and collective growth. This approach not only empowers team members but also creates organizations that are more agile, efficient, and resilient to future challenges.
