  "There is no organization chart
  There are no job titles or job descriptions
  No performance criteria
  No bonuses and no perks
  No regularly scheduled meetings
  No approval levels for capital or expense spending
  No goals
  No offices or high-walled cubicles
  If the peers accept the idea, then "management" is presumed to accept it – hence the need for very little management
  Every employee is simply expected to figure out where they fit

  There is one honorary job title: Plant Manager.  But it’s not what you think.  This facility, what amounts to a very large machine shop filled with heavy 5-axis CNC’s, has hundreds of live plants hanging from the ceiling.  The Plant Manager is the person in charge of maintaining the plants."
