I agree that’s what happens in practice, but it’s quite silly. The right organizational structure depends on the problems being solved, but the business’s problems are always changing - either because of new technology, or competitors, or changing economics, or something else. Tech moves ludicrously fast, so the structure put in place 5 years ago is unlikely to make sense today.
- aahortwwy 5y agoIt's not just structure. A shocking number of managers don't even manage. They just run around putting out fires caused by a lack of management. Organizations can get stuck in this mode and it's really hard to pull them out of it, for sure, but just because someone's navigating a stressful and dysfunctional organization doesn't necessarily mean they're doing a great job at management.
