Valve Corporation, an influential player in the gaming industry, was co-founded by Gabe Newell in 1996 after he left Microsoft. Valve produced iconic games like "Half-Life" and "Portal" and revolutionized digital distribution with its Steam platform. Newell also implemented a unique flat organizational structure that fosters innovation and employee autonomy, setting them apart as a distinctive and forward-thinking company in the tech world. The Valve Corporation Handbook for new employees, published March 2012, is a distinctive guide reflecting the company's innovative and unconventional work culture. It has a candid and engaging approach to introducing Valve's flat organizational structure, where traditional hierarchies are eschewed in favor of a more democratic, self-managing ethos. Employees at Valve enjoy an unusual level of autonomy, with the freedom to select their projects and teams, emblematically illustrated by the concept of desks on wheels, enabling staff to physically move to the workspaces where they feel they can contribute the most. They hire "T-shaped" individuals—people who are not only experts in their field but also like to collaborate. The handbook includes humorous illustrations and comics to convey the company's culture and expectations; it is a reflection of the company's core philosophy that prioritizes innovation, independence, and a deep belief in its team members.
