The solution is to ensure only the truly competent get to lead

Social engineering types (for that is all they are capable of engineering) love to use the word "sustainable" which implies stasis. In a competitive world where stasis doesn't exist the ONLY way for processes to be sustained is through continuous improvement which comes at the cost of showing do care for your workforce by empowering them with the tools and information to do their jobs correctly the first time. As importantly continuous improvement must focus on the customer to ensure your products and services both meet and exceed their expectations in order to remain competitive and profitable. Examine these statements in light of the present idiotic use of the word sustainable to understand why what is currently being done by the incompetent fools in charge cannot be sustained, doesn't support those entrusted with the processes, and in no way shape or form places the needs of the end user at the fore. Sustainable? There is no stasis in an ever changing and competitive world!Show more
