Night two found us in Harrisonburg, Virginia, another Hampton/Holiday, I can’t remember which. These Interstate exits are obviously planned to serve the traveler as pit stops on the way from here to there. Besides the plethora of hotels – usually at least three, maybe half a dozen – there are, naturally, several gas stations, and a restaurant or two. One desk clerk helpfully steered us to a next door truck stop for dinner; “you’d rather walk, right, not get back in the car?” She had that right.

The events leading up to the horror of last year clearly demonstrate how the lack of getting the information to the right people at the right time gets in the way of responding to situations in the real world. However, even with the best “info flow” technology in place, politics in an organization will still present the most massive barrier to “effective responsiveness” of an organization of people.
