As organizations flatten to meet the dramatic impacts that disruption and change are having on business, the dynamics of influence are changing rapidly.
The old concept of managing up and managing down is being replaced by executing and engaging horizontally throughout the entire organization.
To become effective you must show you can get things done while navigating the complexities brought by flat organizations.
Flat organizations might at first seem simple to work through. But the reality is much different.
Flat organizations can bring more politics and road blocks as the number of people involved in a decision increase.
When you democratize the decision making in an organization, things will slow down and there will be some level of dysfunction.
