delayering
| Stripping-out of management layers from a company. Delayering usually entails stripping-out middle management. Modern technology has made communications within companies more efficient, rendering middle management, whose role was often passing communications along the chain of command, superfluous in many cases. Delayering alters the traditional top-down corporate hierarchical structure, and is often accompanied by a shift in power away from the centre of the organization. |
