Not trying to fight either but:
    organizations are groups of people, so an organization will exhibit some
of
    the characteristics of it's people.

    to view them as separate and different entities, to be dealt with
differently,
    can cause conflict.  that is why many organizations have risen and just
as
    quickly fallen - tried to define and control a thing, forgetting the
people
    involved.

    i understand your goal (create something good that will last over time)
and
    support it.  but we will probably disagree on the best way to accomplish
it.

    That's people and life.
