Empowerment goes hand in hand with: - Delayering, since responsibility previously held by middle managers is , in effect , being given to operational workers -Flexibility, since giving responsibility to the people closest to the product and customer encourages responsiveness and speers up the process -New tech, since there are more Knowledge workers in the new organisation.
