THE BEST WAY TO LOOK LIKE YOU’RE DOING SOMETHING without actually doing anything is to call a meeting. Bring a committee together and you create the appearance of seeking to accomplish something. Committees are made up of people with various goals and opinions and thus have a way of spawning sub-committees. If the general subject at hand is at all complicated or involved, research may be necessary, experts may have to be called in, reports assigned and generated and printed and dispersed. More meetings, of course, will become essential. All the committee members will have different schedules, naturally, and so it will take time to get the appointed members together for interim meetings and substantive discussions of the material. It may have taken Shakespeare three months to write ‘Macbeth,’ but it will take over a year for the committee in question to arrive at a point where any action can even be contemplated, let alone performed. By then, circumstances will have changed sufficiently to have to re-commence the entire process. In this manner, you accomplish what you wish to accomplish, which is nothing at all.
