Knowledge workers cannot be supervised. - NISHIO Hirokazu's Scrapbox (Auto-translated from Japanese)

Knowledge workers cannot be supervised.

Historically, the worker has been the director.

The knowledge worker, on the other hand, is an unsupervised entity.

It is useless to have someone who knows more about your specialty than you do.
