The mine field and the General Part III
Suppose an army had a general plan. The general plan assigned objectives to local units of the army. Many years after the general plan was created, the enemy, in a surprise attack, invaded and placed a mine field between a local unit and one of its objectives.
The leaders of the army knew of the existence of the mine field between the local unit and its objective. They had this knowledge for many, many years. Yet, the leaders of the army never upgraded the general plan to account for the minefield. Moreover, the leaders of the army never gave the local unit the training or equipment needed to safely cross the mine field. Click here
What would you think about he leaders of the army for criticizing the local unit for not following the original plan?
Is anyone asking the leaders of the army why the general plan was not upgrade to take the mine field into account?
If the leaders of the army try to scapegoat the local unit for not reaching its objective, what would you think of such leaders?
