Just like making a single bad hire invalidates making ten great hires, setting up a single bad process invalidates every other good process you have set up. "Process" has a life of its own. Process is never re-evaluated. Process accumulates. People follow it mindlessly, wasting time and energy. When you know the solution to a problem, do you want to write a mini-proposal? Set up feedback sessions? Timebox, dogfood, canary-deploy? Heck, "process" will make you not want to do anything at all by that point. A well-functioning org runs on goodwill, tenacity, diligence, and sweat. Bad orgs run on "process."
