Читать книгу The Amazon Management System - Ram Charan - Страница 22

As more companies make the transition to the kinds of Amazon management practices described here, leaders will remove management layers, requiring you to reimagine your job and rebuild your competence. Just as the management reforms of the 1980s and 1990s “re-engineered” corporations and removed redundant roles, the digital age is doing this again through the filter of data analysis.

We expect to see reductions in corporate multilayer structures from seven, nine, or twelve layers to no more than five, four, or even three layers. This will reduce the traditional management pool by as much as eight in ten.

This change is inevitable. We have worked with large traditional companies that have gone from eight layers to three layers, and quickly become disruptors to their traditional and digital competitors.

Don’t be disheartened: this in fact presents you with an opportunity. You can go with the wind and take advantage of it, becoming more prosperous, more satisfied, and achieving faster personal growth. You can benefit by understanding the digital management system, proactively preparing yourself in mindset and skill set, and becoming a catalyst instead of a roadblock in the coming management digitization.
