mushroom management

A way to manage tech teams working to an ill-defined task, described by Tracy Kidder as "Keep them in the dark, feed them shit, watch them grow" (in his 1981 title 'The Soul of a New Machine' about the people that built the first minicomputer at Data General).

As long as the outcome remains undefined, there's no way to hold them accountable for whichever result. You'd better apply mushroom management instead.
