Abstract: Abstract Today we know a fair amount about how to flatten hierarchies of authority but not as much about when and why the attempt is worthwhile. Both designers and inhabitants of organizations may have preferences for specific ways of non-hierarchical organizing. Measuring these and designing accordingly may be an important development for the theory and practice of organization design.
