Title: Exactly what's wrong with modern management
Review: This is perhaps the worst example I have encountered of terrible advice, wrapped in a package of nonsensical and even self-contradictory aphorisms. This is par for this sort of "book" (it's not a book, it's a pamphlet) - what is unusual is how violent the language of the book is... nothing like trodding over and destroying those who don't understand your vision for organization change. The book presents untestable hypotheses, uncited claims, and essentially no tools or mechanisms for actually doing the things they instruct you to do (not that anyone should do anything these authors suggest). If your organization is passing this book around, you should strongly consider whether this is an organization that values rational thought - and thus whether you should work there. Sad that you can't give negative stars - this book will hurt your organization.
Is the review positive or negative?
