About this Quote

In this quote, Jurgen Klinsmann is highlighting the value of delegating authority to individuals on his staff. He is recommending that the conventional hierarchical structure of a company ought to be eliminated in order to empower individuals on his personnel. By delegating authority, Klinsmann is allowing his personnel to take ownership of their work and make decisions without needing to go through a pecking order. This allows for more efficient decision-making and encourages imagination and development. By getting rid of the hierarchy, Klinsmann is developing an environment where everyone is on the very same level and can work together to attain the same goals. This kind of structure enables more collaboration and encourages staff member to think outside the box. Eventually, Klinsmann is advocating for a more egalitarian approach to leadership, where everyone is given the chance to contribute and make choices.
