To explain, in a hierarchical organization, often if that I’m a Minister and I issue orders and the people under me do some decisions and make something, if everything works perfectly, then I get the credit. But if things fail, the media has a way to find which public servant actually caused the failure and they get the blame. In such a environment, nobody actually wants to innovate, because the payoff matrix just isn’t there.
