> We are increasingly seeing a transition (especially in the West) to a "flat hierarchy" system Interesting take. I'm probably a bit older than the author and from my perspective "flat hierarchies" are thing since at least the late nineties. The cynic in me sometimes believes they were actually a thing since forever and hierarchies that seem flat from some viewpoints are just a management instrument to keep workers content.
