That's because we as a culture over-analyze and study businesses as if they are living entities that are the sum of all of it's different internal divisions/parts/stockholder-connected output, instead of fundamentally about delivering value to customers and getting back a greater amount of value in return.

The universities and pop-business books has made everyone so obsessed with the business processes themselves and their management, particularly the stuff that has commonalities across various niches: finance, management culture, 'innovation', etc.

But the all of the various unique fundamental value propositions are what really drives the companies, everything else is just helping deliver and execute that, but the core of the business often goes to the way-side in favour of obsessing over perfecting all of the the small processes in between. An ideal organization should put its primary business front and centre, above the various small processes which it is composed of mostly just for practical reasons of running a business.

It's sometimes difficult to distinguish between the two but I do very much think that it's possible to lose sight of that distinction in the day-to-day running of things, especially once the business gets really larger and running the business itself becomes the biggest time-sink for everyone involved.
