Develops the idea that organisations are of two types: either "spiders" hierarchical and rigid with top down management, or "starfish" flat and decentralised with peer-to-peer relationships. Argues that starfish organisations that lack traditional hierarchies and leadership structures are increasingly important in the modern internet based world. Presents a variety of examples in support of the idea and identifies 10 rules which apply to the new style leaderless organization.
