Some background to ‘flattening the structure’<\/p>\n

In the industrial revolution and mass manufacturing era, companies operated with lots of workers doing remedial tasks.<\/p>\n

We had hundreds of people doing atomic jobs and funneling up progress & information up the ladder.<\/p>\n

After information consolidating across many hierarchical structures, ‘management’ took decisions and sent instructions down the corporate ladder<\/p>\n

In the internet age, we don’t have much remedial work left in many places & the speed of operation has phenomenally increased<\/p>\n

Workers have been replaced with ‘knowledge workers’<\/p>\n

OR ‘Smart creatives’ who are tech savvy, business savvy and are closest to the ground reality<\/p>\n

Therefore decisions should not be made at the top, rather by the engineers closest to the situation<\/p>\n

Which renders no need to ‘manage’ people and take decisions for engineers, rather just ’empower’ the engineers to take decisions.<\/p>\n

Hence the necessity of flatter org hierarchies and Servant leadership<\/p>\n
