In any hierarchical structure, each person takes orders from his or her immediate superior who is answerable to his or her immediate superior, and so on until you get to the person who is the ultimate authority. This is called the chain of command. Disregarding the chain of command can mean either failing to obey the commands of your immediate superior or leaping a level and taking orders from someone who is not your immediate superior or giving them to someone who is not your immediate inferior.
