I think it was edition 675 of the Harvard Business Review which published a survey of management types stating that the 'Big Picture' muse was often rolled out when neither the Board, or the senior executive management, had any idea how to stop unrecoverable drops in share price, revenues and profit. Apparently, when they decided to padlock the biscuit barrel and close the executive toilet, and use British Rail toilet paper in the minions toilet, it was a sign that not only were things bad, but that, god forbid, their share option price was probably out of reach and would have to be clawed back through slush funds in their expense accounts.
