Interesting as a strong leadership belief in a good leader. He’s right it’s a sign of dysfunction in a good, centralized hierarchical org. For decentralized networks, basically every result/algorithm I’ve read about tldrs to “communicate more, between more pairs of points”

I’ve worked with good/bleeding edge centralized hierarchical orgs and the entire philosophy of good management can be boiled down to “do what Amazon does.” It’s amazing how far ahead they are of state of the art MBA theories of good management, at least at that scale.

I’ve only recently started working with good *decentralized* orgs (first paid gig was this year) and my prelimary conclusion: flip almost everything you think is correct about centralized hierarchy management by default. And best if you flip the *best* playbook: Amazon’s.

Recent: Discords devoted to prompt engineering. Older: Wordpress plugin dev. So far there’s usually been a centralized org providing the initial impetus by creating a playing field. That may always remain the case.
