The idea of a truely flat organization is one that's quite intriguing to me. It was discussed in Thomas Friedman's ever-popular "The World is Flat" and that basically stands as it's manifesto.

However, it is actually a rare occurrence to actually see something like this working in the modern age.

To date, I know of 2 companies that work this way and both are major players in their locale and in their field. I would like to flush this artice out a bit more with some info on the Friedman book and some examples, perhaps referenced articles too?, and links modern day companies following this path.

However I would like to clear this by others and the wikipedia mods before I spend any time on it. --Cpfa eljefe 22:46, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
