INDICATORS OF ORGS
Just as pcs have indicators so do orgs.
There is a probable long list of Good Indicators. When these are
present, Ethics is
quiet and hangs onto an interrogation, etc only long enough to get policy
and
technology in.
There is a probable long list of BAD Indicators. When these are present
Ethics
becomes industrious in ratio to the number of bad indicators.
The first indicators, Good or Bad, are Statistics-the OIC graphs for
units,
sections, departments, divisions and the org. When these are rising, the
rise is a GOOD
INDICATOR.
When these are falling the fall is a BAD INDICATOR.
The second of these indicators, good or bad, is TECHNICAL GAINS. When
technology is in cases are gaining. This is a Good Indicator. When
technology is out,
cases are losing. This is a Bad Indicator.
Ethics only exists to hold the fort long enough and settle things down
enough to
get technology in. Ethics is never carried on for its own sake. It is
pushed home only
until technology is functioning and then technology resolves matters and
Ethics prowls
off looking for other targets.
We don't hang people because we started to hang them and so must do so.
We
start to hang people and keep right on tying the noose in a workmanlike
fashion right
up to the instant we can get tech in-which of course makes the noose
unnecessary.
But if tech never does get in then we complete the hanging.
You will find if you label a Suppressive you will some day get him back
and get
tech in on him. If you don't ever label they wander off and get lost.
Labelling as a Suppressive is our hanging.
When things are bad (Bad Indicators heavily visible) putting a body on
the
gallows is very salutary. We call it "Putting a head on a pike". Too many
BAD
Indicators and too goofed up a situation and we must put a head on a pike.
Then
things simmer down and we can begin to get tech in.
That's the whole purpose of Ethics-to Get Tech IN. And we use enough to
do so,
to get correct standard tech in and being done.
When there are lots of bad indicators about-low and falling statistics,
goofed
cases, we get very handy with our Interrogatories and put the place very
nearly under
martial law-we call this a State of Emergency. Once Emergency is declared,
you
