If the best management is about getting out of the way of employees, then maybe we can learn something from this approach -
“digitally enhanced directed autonomy,” or DEDA. The idea is straightforward - provide the resources usually bottlenecked by management - in a shared platform which employees can digitally access at any time. If the purpose of management is to translate executive direction to employee output, it made most sense when the flow of information was the problem; with these frictions removed, the purpose of the managerial class will need to be rewritten.
