    New manager need to prove themselves -> can’t do that by small improvements -> dreams up major changes -> gets promoted -> repeat

    Is my guess

      ^ this guy corporates

      Also, new manager would be part owner in a UX design firm of “experts” that conveniently, via their expert advice, convince management that a major redesign is needed and their firm is the only one that can do it (since everyone knows you can’t get expert advice internally)

      80% of the way through the project, the manager gets promoted and moves on, leaving a new manager with no vested interest in their predecessors project to try and clean up the steaming dumpster fire that is now 300x over budget
