This paper seeks to establish an elementary approach to understand the blue print of the Redefining Hierarchies in the context of Modern Organizations. In this paper, I will explore the evolving dimensions of organizational behavior in administration. The hierarchy between superiors and subordinates is a fundamental principle in organizations, ensuring the institution's smooth operation. However, this hierarchical structure may need to be adjusted to fit different circumstances. Decision-making can sometimes become excessively slow and prone to corruption. To address this, India introduced the 'File Jumping Experiment' a few years ago, designed to bypass intermediate hierarchical levels, allowing documents to reach the decision-making authority directly. This Level Jumping can be beneficial in certain administrative contexts. My research is based on both theoretical and empirical in nature. I have studied the attitudes of Employees who are currently engaged in various organizations which include employees of a Media House, an Educational Organization and an NPO; I have thoroughly observed the behavior patterns of Employees; their beliefs, norms and experiences on Hierarchy, Level Jumping and Red Tape. I have authorized 50 samples. Moreover, different research papers, journals, electronic sources have helped me in gathering secondary data. This research paper aims to address the limitations of traditional hierarchies, such as slow decision-making, bureaucratic inefficiencies, inadequate transparency between superiors and subordinates, and a lack of organizational flexibility. By exploring the concept of level jumping, the study seeks to propose solutions for enhancing decision-making speed, reducing red tape, improving transparency, and increasing adaptability within organizations
