That you don't see the problem

Explain, then. "It should be obvious" is not an explanation.

The fact that the employees were able represent their defacto power in a crisis is good, but the fact that the don't have explicit power in the decision making process is why this able to happen in the first place.

There are no good kings, even if the best men were made kings, they would be inherently tainted by the position.

That's all that I'm saying.

If you've got issues with the whole concept of hierarchical power structures or there being such a thing as "leaders", that's a bit beyond the scope of this particular situation.

Heck you could even keep the hierarchy, but with no representation of the workers in leadership you lose an major perspective on the organization.
