You start putting more sticky notes on the organization chart on the easel. "Okay, Janeen," you tell her. "Time for another check here. If I'm reading you correctly, the organization now looks something like this. Are we still on the same page?" talks about flat organizational structure with a wide span of control.

Explanation:

A flat organization refers to an organization structure with few or no levels of management between management and staff level employees. The flat organization supervises employees less while promoting their increased involvement in the decision-making process. A flat structure elevates each employee's responsibility inside the organization and eliminates excess management layers to improve coordination and communication. Fewer levels between employees improve the decision-making process among staff. The lack of need for middle management boosts the organization's budget. A manager's span of control refers to how many employees that manager supervises. A manager with a wide span of control supervises many employees, while one with a narrow span supervises just a few.
