Finding Ways to Handle the New Work Order

In this episode, Dr. Frederick Morgeson, Eli Broad Professor of Management, talks into how structural hierarchies shape employee behavior within organisations.

“The trend over time has been to flatten levels by getting rid of structures,” explains Moregson. “One of the reasons why we see this flattening is cost control. if you can remove layers of management you have less leaders you have to pay and organise.”

This ongoing shift towards flatter organisational structures empowers employees, fostering greater autonomy in their roles.
