Github is fortunate in being one of the few companies that their customers are the same type of people as their employees. This allows them to get a lot of what traditional management is needed for "for free" and allows radical freedom in their management structure.

I'd hesitate to try to apply their example to other companies unless you're in a similar situation.

Another example which backs up your hypothesis is Valve; a gaming company filled with people who love games, and thus they are their own customers. They too have a "no management" management approach.
