Thought to sum up the month
Warren Buffett:
My most surprising discovery: the overwhelming importance in business of an unseen force that we might call “the institutional imperative.”
For example:
- As if governed by Newton’s First Law of Motion, an institution will resist any change in its current direction;
- Just as work expands to fill available time, corporate projects or acquisitions will materialize to soak up available funds;
- Any business craving of the leader, however foolish, will be quickly supported by detailed rate-of-return and strategic studies prepared by his troops; and
- the behavior of peer companies, whether they are expanding, acquiring, setting executive compensation or whatever, will be mindlessly imitated.
