Not biological — organizational. This immune system is programmed to detect deviations from the status quo and neutralize them. It operates through budgeting processes, incentive structures, stage-gate procedures, governance bodies, and cultural norms that accumulated over decades.</p> <p>The immune system is not malicious. It is useful. It protects the enterprise from uncontrolled change, from uncalculated risk, and from the chaos that would ensue if every manager pursued their own agenda simultaneously. Without this immune system, no large organization would function.</p>
