Definitions

a term applied to a practice of wearing only one's highest hat in a small org using the comm member system and also in receiving an order or advice as a lower comm member and "going upstairs" with one's hats to refuse it. In a very small org, it is very wise to write from the hat one is talking about to the comm member in a bigger org that wears that hat, and then, in receiving the reply, receive it as the hat that asked the question or sent the data.
