The Necessary Bureaucracy ๐Ÿ—’๏ธ

We see unnecessary bureaucracy everywhere, how can we recognize it?

  • Is paper needed just for the sake of having the paper, because 100 years ago someone decided to have that?
  • Is the current process just a wrapped version of the process described above with fewer steps but still with a lot of complications?
  • Do people enforcing the process understand the importance of each step?

These are all the signs of unnecessary bureaucracy.

Why do we need bureaucracy anyway?

To make sure people are following steps that are necessary to ensure safe and trustworthy decisions/documents/laws etc…

The human brain/memories are fragile, we can’t trust it, so we decided to trust ink on trees and electrons flowing through different materials.

How to understand that the bureaucracy needed is not present?

  • Steps need to be followed for the process to be complete.
  • There is no trust(unknown trust) between parties negotiating/deciding(in present, past or future).

And if it doesn’t serve its point, it’s time to rethink and refactor.
