Why Germany's naval staff was less effective

Did Germany have a naval staff, and would it have been as effective as the proposed British one?

Germany had naval staffs, but authority was split among three competing organizations, making unified direction difficult.

Imperial Germany had three naval ministries and staff organizations, but their overlapping responsibilities produced bureaucratic conflict. This fragmented structure shows why a nominal staff system need not deliver unified strategy or administration. Effectiveness depends on resolving authority and coordination rather than simply creating offices with staff titles.
