Management by scarcity

Management by scarcity is a whole new concept for me. I am still wrapping my brain around it, still thinking and ruminating on it. What is amazing, to me at least, is that the concept exists, plus the concept is practiced. Does it work?  How does one implement it?  This is how you go about it; Goals.  Set goals.  Then change them regularly at different forums with various and different team members. Direction.  Change direction and the road map to the goal frequently.  Turn left, turn right, then circle back. Yep - that's the way to go. Deadline.  Set them.  Then I make sure that everyone understands that the deadline is not fixed and can change at any time. Responsibilities and structure.  Never ever define a structure on paper.  Even if you do, make sure the structure is totally flat.  With the ceo on the top and all others on the next level.  Leave everything hazy so that no one knows who is responsible for what, or who reports to whom.  Authority.
