Do organisations inevitably to come to the point that, at one time, their size, turnover, business significance and so on, just require them to develop structures of intelligence and counter intelligence (regardless of type of their activity)?

Is it possible for an organisation to grow large and complex and be sucessfully managed without the bosses spying on, infiltrating, etc their own colleagues, employees, as well as the competition (in the particular case of business organisations)?

The lowest servant in Heaven is still in Heaven.

Whoever rules in hell is still in hell, but they won't rule for long.

Observe the Peter Principle: "People rise to their level of incompetence and stay there."

It is necessary, from time to time, to see who just might undo all the good your company has done, not through deliberate wrongdoing, but through sheer incompetence.

That is when I change an employee's department to something that they can handle, and term it a "promotion."

One such case was a negligent explosives "hot packer." HP's go in after the "mucker" has removed the rubble from a previous blast. The rock face may still be hot from the previous shot. Underground blasting is dangerous work anyway, but to be careless with explosives is something akin to suicide.

Rather than have four other people quit, I put him into the preparation cage, at the expected higher salary. If I hadn't done my homework about this guy, we'd have had disabling injuries or fatalities as the result.
