Infrastructure

The place people call home and where they go to live after they have lost their own home to foreclosure.

It is a good thing the current administration made the single, largest, investment in the nation's infrastructure since the creation of the interstate highway system in the 1950s. Build some more bridges. The homeless have to live somewhere. There is no place like home!

The is a set of mismanaged operating principles that cause chronic limitations in an organization's ability to operate and functional effectively. This organizational dysfunction is often associated with incompetent leadership, lack of strategy, toxic culture, flawed and ineffectual decision making. Extreme consequences of infrastricture is often associated with leaders of these organization believing and communicating a delusion that they are a highly optimized and competitive organization that holds a leadership position among its peer.

Kodak's infrastricture caused the the company to not effectively respond to the imminent disruption of digital imaging.

Blockbuster's infrastricture caused the company to not effectively defend itself against the threat of Netflix.

Most consulting firms create value for their clients by diagnosing and treating their infrastricture in order to drive future growth.

The CEO of the company was ignorant of the infrastricture that they created in their organization.
