The Trivandrum Week (Follett Reading)
Edo Segal's February 2026 training session in southern India — twenty engineers each operating with the leverage of a full team — read through Follett's framework as the paradigmatic instance of power-with producing co-active intelligence rather than headcount reduction.
Edo Segal's February 2026 training session in Trivandrum, India — where twenty engineers, equipped with Claude Code Max subscriptions, discovered over the course of a week that each could operate with the leverage of a full team. Read through Follett's framework, the event is not a productivity demonstration but a paradigmatic instance of power-with: AI tools deployed as amplifiers of each member's contribution rather than as substitutes for workers. The boardroom arithmetic that would have eliminated fifteen of the twenty treated capability as a fixed pie to be sliced more efficiently. Follett's framework reveals what the arithmetic concealed — that the interactions between team members were generating intelligence no aggregation of augmented individuals could replicate. Segal kept the team. The decision that kept him up at night was not about technology; it was about people.
