Task Reallocation, Organizational Flattening, and Leadership Velocity
Appreciate you, Hodman! Thanks!
Appreciate this synthesis of how work now is shifting from building the product itself to mastering the strategy behind it.
Love how you framed this around adaptive capacity.
Everyone’s talking about efficiency, but the real moat is how fast a company can reallocate work and judgment.
Great piece John- One interesting thought is that all of those company restructurings are being guided by some management consultancy.
Companies like to employ consultancies to do this kind of “dirty work“ because it gives them a “plausible” rationale.
Which justifies firing people just as they’re announcing record profits.
Good work to dig below the surface.
