Answer:

An organization with little levels of management from leadership

Example is apple

Step-by-step explanation:

A flat organization is an organization that has little or no levels of middle management existing among the leadership and the employees in the organization. Startups often use this organizational structure.

An example of this structure is Apple. This is because the company Apple has self managed teams. Manager involvement is minimal. The teams are highly empowered and they independently manage their departments

In the long term, the flat organization Is more likely to be around as it provides more motivation for the employees as well as empowering them. Thereby making them to contribute better in the organization.
