“We didn’t even have a proper corporate organisation, yet everybody listened to him. It’s a kind of quality you just have to be born with.”

“We didn’t even have a proper corporate organisation, yet everybody listened to him. It’s a kind of quality you just have to be born with.”

So it was organisationally flat? They were just kinda doing what they wanted and it all worked out? Wild.

it's more "lacking organization" than "flat organization". I've worked in both environments - the former is chaos and little, informal fiefdoms. the latter lets you get things done without a ton of oversight.
