This is also almost my first time that I've heard about "cargo cult" and that does sum up nicely a lot of things I've seen at my place.
I hope this is a valid example?
1. Project P fails spectacularly, really bringing the reliability targets of the whole production down. In reality we don't have proper targets, we have "100% reliability" target, but still, it was below 98.5% judging by my calculations which was unacceptable.
2. Management furious at that time. The team in charge of that project promises that they are going to regroup, start doing "retros", using "planning poker", and introduce more alerts (to some other team of course...) etc
3. Management gives them another (n-th) chance because the tools sound cool and think that employing "technology" will always fix social problems.
