gridocracy

/ˌɡrɪdˈɒkrəsi/nounVerified New

Rule by the master spreadsheet — the single shared sheet whose cells quietly become the organization's constitution.

Headcount, priorities, and truth live in one tab owned by one person with edit rights. Meetings deliberate; gridocracy decides, silently, at the last saved version.

Etym. — grid + -ocracy: the spreadsheet grid as a ruling instrument.

Rel. — dashfog
