I think it at times unfortunate that we humans have such an obsession with nomenclature, and identification. There is almost always a drive to synthesize a corporate culture that is monolithic, and a follow on to a former monolithic. This spills into the disciplines, and creates an inevitable conflict.
With great respect, it is at times also risky to create a new paradigm reliant on the creators of the old one. What lasts, what is resilience anyway, but time tested procedure that evolves, some times in spite of design, not because of.
We have a cross cultural habit of injecting useless traditions and prejudices into the new age, We fear the future, whilst we address it.
The soft sciences are so vulnerable to abuse, but here, I think a time out from that prejudice is important. As I said prior, we can create an environment for ourselves that promotes the human failings that we cannot discard. The secret is not to fight them, for they are who we are. Acknowledge, and look in the place where the problem is. At a time when leadership is rare, we have educated too many to assume its role, to our great hazard.
We encourage "outside the box" thinking, innovation, and analysis by the wrong people.
I promise, of all the "New" proposals I have seen, (business), there is a fanfare for the new, the new analysis, the new method. At times, when stupid things happen; the truly inexplicable failure cuts our project off at the knees, it is a human failing that has made it possible.
A healthy industry is not adversarial, not fearful, not greedy. Its inner bonds are strong (resilient?), its employees are secure, and specialists supported, and respected. So long as people are involved, it is crucial to support them, for in supporting ones employees, one makes possible great things. One cannot betray the people, as one would desert a machine, to labor on in darkness and obscurity.
The problem is a lack of leadership. The old ones know what it is, they are here, they have experienced the camaraderie and loyalty that come from a workplace that is kind, explicit, and honest. Not a desperate, snappish, and distracted struggle.
I have a tape of Feynman's last lecture... It was sublime.
Lighten the load, get a grip, and patiently recast the mission in the midst of its prosecution, It is a people business. The technology, as we see, is here.
Lose the fear.
