CTC - Jessica Lipnack and Jeffrey Stamps

Below are comments from Jessica Lipnack and Jeffrey Stamps of NetAge.

"We can't solve 21st-century problems with 19th-century organizations" - quote from member of CIA.

We have always been networkeed, even in a hierarchal structures. In is just that we used to view each other as static systems. Now we see that we are hubs that form webs.

The goal of transparency is for employees to see how you fit in all the way through to the top

People at the top of organizations have trouble looking down more than a couple levels

Communications by cascade can't reach everyone, but sideways communications can.

An organizational structure is thought of as a pyramid, but it is actually more of a diamond. This means that you need to find a way to reach the middle.
