In anticipating failure in poor decision making, especially at the managment level, by preparing in advance a third party to hold responsible and thus avoid accountablity.

CEO: If these third quarter projections turn out to be as bogus as you think, the board will have my ass.

CFO: Sounds good, I'll set that up. Wanna get a drink?
