I think at root this might be about authority. Today's SV culture seems to challenge authority and hierarchy (the boss, management) in favour of the team, flat organisations, and fair play. When the boss makes a decision then, the boss often gets challenged and the challengers feel right doing so. Disruption, innovation. All this is new but we think it's normal now! Businesses used to have clear lines of authority, heirarchy and the boss was on top, made the decisions and was generally obeyed. I wonder how management academics will write about this period of time in 20 years or so.
