{{a|gsv|}}Prevalent feedback loop is not work creation | {{a|gsv|}}Prevalent [[feedback loop]] is not ''work'' creation as much as ''role'' preservation: the perfect bureaucratic job is to march around with a clip-board inspecting things, and insisting that ''someone else'' does the remedial work. | ||
Any number of modern excuses to over-analyse, over-control, over-report, over-audit and wallpaper with policies and processes that require second-order maintenance and oversight. | |||
You can’t fix this from the bottom up: if your push down your cost challenge is to your seventeen risk control and audit functions, they will start at the bottom and trim fat, rather than reassessing their own architecture and ''raison d’etre''. ''Turkeys don’t vote for Christmas''.<ref>I have never understood how this aphorism came to be. ''No-one'' “votes” for Christmas. Why would Turkeys? What’s on the ballot? It is like, okay, farm animals: you have a choice. What are you going to celebrate? Easter, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Eid and Rosh Hashanah? Pigs probably vote for Eid or Rosh Hashanah, don’t they. They wouldn’t be wild about Christmas Either. On the other hand the Lamb Revolutionary Party would be very opposed to Eid.</ref> | You can’t fix this from the bottom up: if your push down your cost challenge is to your seventeen risk control and audit functions, they will start at the bottom and trim fat, rather than reassessing their own architecture and ''raison d’etre''.
