I'm not sure I understand what you're saying.

If there is more upper management, by default there must be also more middle management.

If you take one head, and say 3 directors under him, and then 5 directors under each of those, and then split it into 2 heads, you must also provide those heads with their own directors and middle management.

Oftentimes, a president and vice president will also have an upper level manager doing exactly what they do.

I would imagine they took the head, split it into two, creating a new VP, and are likely creating new middle management.

When my company took Admin and split it into Admin and HR, they created three new positions. Payroll administrator, Accounts Payable administrator, HR assistant. Those are all middle management, and created a new director role, the HR area director. Before, the HR assistant and the Director assistant was the same person, me. Now, I report only to the Area Director, and not to HR.

Now, as the administrator, I don't have to make decisions for both HR and Admin, just admin. This improves my work quality and reduces my workload, allowing me to focus on the administration level processes.


I just think that they created upper-management positions were middle-management would be sufficient
