A Secret History of Management Theory

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

What isn't management and why doesn't it matter? This compelling book leads the reader away from the stories told by managers and management theories to show the secret history of the field. In characterizing the progress of management as a war on workers, the author offers a controversial and revealing alternative intellectual history of this overwhelming discipline.
