Horizontal Organization

The vertical/functional hierarchy has been the mainstay of business since the industrial revolution. But it has its problems.

Hierarchy in organizations is obsolete. There is a better way: one that increases the engagement of employees and managers alike, reduces micromanaging and other limiting approaches, and promotes organizational and individual success.
