Orcs - Raw Efficiency

They act quickly, speak loudly, and charge headlong. They obey or command. They hate complexity. They are loyal, but often violent. Their strength is physical or hierarchical. It is direct and efficient but lacks perspective.

Qualities: determination, endurance, speed of execution. Risks: authoritarianism, relational brutality, rejection of nuance.

"The orc in the corporate world is the one who says: 'we don't have time for that,' and crushes everything that slows things down."

As Saruman says in The Lord of the Rings: "The old wisdom and the beauty of this world will burn in the flames of the orcs' industry."
