Leaders wanted – presence not required. Detlef Lohmann disregards everything universities teach about economy. Hierarchies? Departments? A boss who makes all the decisions?

As managing director, Lohmann did away with all that, flipping the classical pyramid structure on its head. By the standards of traditional business management, Lohmann’s company cannot exist, let alone flourish. But it does. In fact, his business is extremely successful, flexible and robust.

Lohmann discovered that when employees are empowered to work autonomously within the right structural framework, leaders don’t have to do anything anymore. Or rather, leaders finally have time to do what leaders should do. And at lunchtime? They go home.
