Rezensionen

'...a brilliant eye-opening book for [managers], especially philosophical practitioners, because it shows the great opportunity for Socratic philosophers to become organizational and management consultants 'to encourage managers to reflect on the assumptions that are implicit in their experiences.' Evidently, one of today's most urgent questions in management is not whether corporations have 'philosophies' but whether they have corporate philosophers.' - Reinhard Zaiser, Philosophical Practice
