Abstract
Tony Eccles' article raises the issue of corporate staffs, de-layering and downsizing. Given the current fashion for slimming down, he raises some useful caveats, reminding us that some ‘layers’ play a useful and even essential function. On the other hand, many companies have been liberated from the dead head of bureaucracy by the de-layering process. What we need is some practical guidance of whether, when and how far de-layering should be undertaken. Readers with views on this topic are invited to write to us.
