Is 21 a big number? At most places I've been (in various European countries) 12-15 direct reports has generally been considered on the lower side and 30 wasn't considered abnormal in any way.
If each manager can only manage 5-10 people doesn't that just lead to unnecessarily many layers of management?
- reverius42 2y agoWith 10 direct reports per manager, you can have 100,000 people with 5 layers of management. That’s a lot of people. Is that too many layers of management?
