What's a line of blame?
- e40 3y agoI take it to mean when blame is being aimed you are not in the line of fire.
- Eduard 3y agointeresting - I understand it differently, namely as in: "at a project's beginning, define rules such as 'if component X explodes, it is team ABC's fault'". context: > 37. (Henshaw's Law) One key to success in a mission is establishing clear lines of blame.
- bombcar 3y agoBlame is just another word for responsibility. If you don’t have clear lines of blame you don’t have clear responsibilities.
- innrautha 3y agoI took it to mean clearly delineated responsibilities (i.e. who gets blamed when a part / aspect doesn't work). If there are unclear boundaries between responsibilities, things will fall through the gaps when one group assumes another will take care of something.
- firewolf34 3y agoFurthermore, when people are held responsible for quality completion of a task, they are often more driven to achieve the task at-quality. This must be balanced with not over-taxing them, but that's a given.
