Be wary of mediocre processes

Because of the normal distribution of talents and drive in the world, a depressingly large percentage of organisational processes have been designed to deal with people of moderate ability, motivation, and trust.

In most processes today the administrators seem to prefer to be completely in control of mediocre processes to being "out of control" with super-productive processes. They are trying to "avoid failure" rather than trying to "capture the heavens".
