Remember that in corporate world, the change is always for the worse.<p>That may seem like a wisecrack, but it&#x27;s actually based on engineering maxim &quot;don&#x27;t change what works&quot;. Since in corporations most things work somehow, any change is bad.<p>Except, of course, when it isn&#x27;t. However, one should always understand the rationale for the original solution before making some change. This is actually impossible for mere mortals (with their limited brains, even if they have MBA) to do properly on company-wide scale for largish companies. From this follows that best course of action to be taken by upper management is to never initiate any change, lest the problem is not well understood.<p>Unfortunately, such philosophy doesn&#x27;t really lend much credence to upper management&#x27;s existence, therefore it&#x27;s unlikely to be adopted.
