In any professional environment, management is composed of a leader and a group of colleagues working collaboratively. Together, they work towards their team’s goals. Ideally, the team should meet their targets and perform well under an effective management. But what if things don’t pan out as expected?

In my last post, “The Remarkable Power of the Truth Teller” we touched upon the idea that people do lie and stretch the truth. The price of lying is often a high one: being known as a deceiver.

By our estimates, an excess of bureaucracy costs the U.S. economy more than $3 trillion in lost economic output per year. When you look at all 32 countries in the OECD, the cost of excess bureaucracy rises to nearly $9 trillion. Yet while the incentives for dismantling bureaucracy are substantial, so are the hurdles.

Investors who have flooded the cybersecurity market in search for the next software “unicorn” have yet to realize that when it comes to a risk as complex as this one, there is no panacea — certainly not one that depends on technology alone.
