Complexity at Work

I have been involved in some projects of late, around organizational change and it amazes me how many tasks are involved and the level of 'drill down'. One project has more than 250 pages of tasks, sub-tasks, sub-sub, sub-sub-sub, etc, etc. Anyway around 17,000 tasks to accomplish the project. so my thoughts are:

A. Overzealous project management consultant
B. Sponsor not actively involved at the start
C. Organization needs detail down to the micro level because they cant be trusted?

Who knows
