Zappos to employees: Get behind our ‘no bosses’ approach, or leave with severance

No job titles. No traditional bosses. No conventional corporate hierarchy. It might sound nice, but would you really want to work there?

That’s the question, essentially, that Zappos is asking its employees after experimenting with a radical approach to management. Called "holacracy," the new system replaces the conventional command-and-control workplace with a series of self-governed teams, known as "circles." The effort is supposed to speed decision-making, share authority and help the organization become more innovative.
