Read it:

Three organizations built to work without the usual middle. A Seattle banker named Dee Hock assembles a payment system out of banks that compete with one another and gives it no owner at all. Two engineers and a salesman start a chip company in a booth at a Denny's and run it, three decades later, with almost no layers between the top and the work. A rocket company puts its chief engineer in the same room as the welders and fires anyone who asks for a meeting. Each refuses the chart, each is said to have been vindicated, and each turns out on inspection to have replaced the chart with something — a rule, a founder, a threat — that the account usually leaves out. Covers Dee Hock, Jensen Huang, Chris Malachowsky, Curtis Priem, Nvidia, and SpaceX.
