The Red Queen Problem – Innovation in the DoD and Intelligence Community
- QAPereo 9y agoVery thoughtful insights from someone who doesn't understand that a lack of thoughtful insight isn't the problem with our bloated and inefficient bureaucracies, and therefore fails to address those problems. You don't turn a bunch of bureaucratic lifers into tech-esque startup-minded types with teaching, you need new people and new structures to support and incentive them. Right now, ass-covering and stasis are rewarded, the rest is not. Focusing on the results of bad behavior and not the roots will always fail.
- moocowtruck 9y agoits tough because how do you drain such a large swamp without the gators fighting back? it's a miserable situation for sure. I've been in gov work for quite awhile and agree we need to nuke the lifers out, shit wont change because they will always be incompetent
- QAPereo 9y agoIf I had those answers, I’d be doing more than opining here. As you say the scale of the problem is staggering and self-perpetuating.
