Have you ever watched a flock of birds work together?

Thousands of animals, flying in perfect synchrony: Isn't it fascinating?

What I find remarkable is that these birds would not be able to do that if they all would have to follow one leader.

Their reaction speed would simply be too low.

Well, it's one way of illustrating what I believe to be the most important change that is needed in ways of working today.
