## Welcome to Flatland
|
||
|
||
Hierarchy is great for maintaining predictability and repeatability. It simplifies planning and makes it easier to
|
||
control a large group of people from the top down, which is why military organizations rely on it so heavily.
|
||
|
||
But when you’re a day zero company that’s spent the last decade going out of its way to identify and recruit the most
|
||
intelligent, innovative, talented people on Earth to be members of the organization, telling them to sit at a desk and
|
||
do what they’re told obliterates 99 percent of their value.
|
||
|
||
We want innovators, and that means maintaining an environment where they’ll flourish. That’s why TSYS Group is flat. It’s our shorthand way of
|
||
saying that we don’t have any middle management, just a highly dedicated senior leadership team (made of up the organization co-founders) and a fully
|
||
independent Board of Directors (with the power to remove management if necessary) to ensure all stakeholders are fully represented.
|
||
|
||
All meetings of the Board and leadership are open participation (read only) and our CEO (@ReachableCEO everywhere) is highly responsive to all levels of the
|
||
organization and external stakeholders.
|
||
|
||
The organization truly belongs to it's members, it's yours! Yours to steer—toward opportunities and away from risks.
|
||
|
||
You have the power to green-light projects. You have the power to ship products.
|
||
|
||
A flat structure removes every organizational barrier between your work and the customer enjoying that work.
|
||
|
||
Every company will tell you that “the customer is boss,” but here that statement has weight. There’s no red tape stopping you from figuring out for yourself what our customers
|
||
want, and then giving it to them.
|
||
|
||
If you’re thinking to yourself, “Wow, that sounds like a lot of responsibility,” you’re right.
|
||
|
||
And that’s why onboarding new members is the single most important thing you will ever do at TSYS Group.
|
||
|
||
Any time you vet a potential member, you need to ask yourself not only if they’re exceptionally talented and collaborative but also if they’re capable of literally running this organization, because they will be. |
