That sounds about right. If you watched the video then you also will notice that the further up the management chain we go, the more abstract the goals become compared to the most concrete ones that the nurses are dealing with. One could say that if most care work starts and ends with those concrete individualized issues, the cost of handling (or worse, prioritizing) abstract goals is far greater than the benefits that they add. Compare that to the pandemic response example I gave: that is the kind of challenge where there are concrete problems at individual, city-wide, national and international scale to tackle, and they're all interconnected too. So plenty of those coordination problems you mentioned.
