it has been long proven that constant transfers of personnel-also known as "musical chairs"-and frequent demotions or dismissals cause a situation of decline in an org, and winds up with staffs: (a) not getting fully hatted and trained on the actions and functions of one post, (b) not gaining the experience they need on the post to learn all the ropes, (c) thus being left with misunderstoods on that post or area, (d) and the same occurring in rapid succession on other posts. In such a situation one winds up finally with confused staff, slow producers due to earlier unhandled misunderstood words, lack of hatting as the Hatting Officer can't keep up, lack of personnel programming as they don't stay long enough on any one post to complete their program for that post. This then leads to unstable terminals, which brings about weak internal lines and reflects on the field by lack of new bodies or if they do show, lack of sign-ups, and finally, lack of a stable, bright, high morale staff which is producing. This is the cycle of disestablishment. It doesn't happen overnight * But once started, it disestablishes with increasing momentum. (BPL 9 Aug 71R II)
