You don’t think that kind of thing happens now? You’ve never been in an organization where middle managers carve out little kingdoms for themselves and bicker and fight with one another, trying to get each other’s projects canceled, trying to avoid changing the way they do things even when it’s clearly inefficient?

Does that behavior warrant enabling?

I’m just saying, that’s a very human behavior and you’re going to have to find ways to combat that tendency in any organizational structure. If anything having everything out in the open will help.
