Obama has managed to appoint 32 so-called Czars who are supposed to oversee everything from executive pay, to the environment, and to health care. Each of these Czar's responsibilities take away from the existing cabinet positions and other agency heads. Now, Obama has created a new agency that reports directly to the White House. This new group is specifically intended to conduct interrogations; taking that complete responsibility, I suppose, away from the FBI, the military, and the CIA. And, I've previously pointed out, that Hillary Clinton's job as Secretary of State is being undermined by all the "special envoys" and "special negotiators" that Obama has already appointed.
This is just bad management. It can only create dissension in the ranks of the President's Administration. It undermines the confidence of all those cabinet members who can only see themselves as losing critical and important aspects of their responsibilities. Then, too, I would think that some cabinet members will see themselves as taking orders from two bosses: A Czar or a Special Appointee and Barack Obama.
This type of "division" of labor can result in some cabinet members becoming fed up and quitting. There are just too many cooks involved in all this Administration's activities. This kind of managerial environment will only lead to people stepping on others or getting stepped on, themselves. Not good!
