The Law of Bureaucratic Viscosity
The primary explanatory framework for SI in administrative contexts is the Law of Bureaucratic Viscosity, developed by Klinker and Finkel (1978). This law posits that the time required for a directive to fully implement across an organization is directly proportional to the cube of the number of intervening decision nodes, squared by the average tenure of the mid-level supervisors who must process the directive.
