English term or phrase: power to the edge
[b]Power to the edge[/b] is about changing the way individuals, organizations, and systems relate to one another and work. [b]Power to the edge[/b] involves the empowerment of individuals at the edge of an organization (where the organization interacts with its operating environment to have an impact or effect on that environment) or, in the case of systems, edge devices. ......................In an Industrial Age organization, being at the edge can mean being (1) far from the center, at the “pointy end of the spear” (2) lowest in rank, or (3) in contact
with the customer. Paradoxically, the first two are associated with a lack of power while the third is focused on the ability to make things happen. Often, the phrase “pointy end of the spear” is used to distinguish a critical mission (line function) from a supporting (or overhead) activity.

Explanation:
Dupa cum inteleg eu sintagma, e vorba despre rasturnarea vechiului sistem de putere piramidal, astfel incat si cei slabi sa aiba putere. O mie de oameni puternici valoreaza mai mult decat 1 om foarte puternic si 999 slabi.
