It is foolish to blame every corporate disaster on DEI.
The undoing of Boeing began in 1997 with its merger to McDonnell Douglas and its sacrifice of engineering excellence for greater profits.
“It is foolish to blame every corporate disaster on DEI.”
Fair enough—but DEI can take an excellent company and turn it into a mediocre one, and take a mediocre company and turn it into an awful one.
Among other things it is a morale crusher—and eventually the competent white males start “quiet quitting” or “mailing it in” if they do not leave to go elsewhere.
All the competent white males have to do is fail to report issues—while the DEI managers lack the skills to identify the same issues—and then easily fixable problems turn into major crises.
