Productive Workplaces – Dignity, Meaning, and Community in the 21st Century 3e 25 Year Anniversary
Dignity, Meaning, and Community in the 21st Century
Gebonden Engels 2012 3e druk 9780470900178Samenvatting
Strategy and Business 2012 Organizational Culture Book of the Year
This third edition of the classic resource, Productive Workplaces is smart, well–written and well–researched, thoughtful, somewhat provocative, and a one–of–a–kind review of the integration of economics, technology, and people. It covers such topics as: the work on self as integral to organizational change; the revision of Lewinian concepts for a new era; and the history behind getting everybody improving whole systems as a response to fast change and increasing diversity (not the same as using any particular method). The themes, case studies (many revisited), and models are as relevant as ever.
