In Japan’s government and large corporate bureaucracies, the belief in the “principle of infallibility” is almost unconsciously assumed.
Although this term may not be commonly familiar, it refers to the belief that an organization that has taken on the responsibility to make a certain policy succeed must not think or discuss what to do when that policy fails.
This belief often results in the pursuit of idealism over reality.
For example, the “fragility of human resources, systems, and programs” pointed out by the executives of asset management companies managing several birillion dollars is a case in point.
Here, we will explain the “unreality” due to the “principle of infallibility” of government officials and bureaucrats that they specifically pointed out.
Fragility of human resources, systems, and programs
“Human resource shortage”
