Today, I came across this article called Simplicity Can Untangle Complex Business Issues.
It was written by Mark Gottfredson, who is a partner at the consulting firm Bain & Co, and is the co-author of "The Breakthrough Imperative: How the Best Managers Get Outstanding Results
".
Gottfredson makes the same observation that I have seen in the corporate world - that the natural flow is for things to become more complex over time. Simplicity is something that managers must actively work on.

On my Tao of Simplicity blog, I posted 5 quotations on simplicity from great historic thinkers.
I found this nice article by George Chua entitled "Complicating Simplicity".
It perfectly describes my experience in the business world - that companies and bureaucracies over-react to issues and problems - thus making things more complicated than they need to be.
This generates extra costs that must either be passed on to customers, or else absorbed (reducing profit margins).
I like this quote:
Many production and QA engineers tend to shoot themselves in the foot without realizing it by coming up with features and standards that their own customers don’t care about or are not even aware of.

Here is an article on a man in Utah who lives in a cave and has not used money in 10 years...
His life is simple, but hard. He does not use welfare or food stamps.
