Riassunto

Business is working in tunnel vision mode through the lenses of a limited worldview. Prestigious business schools, academics and Big Management Consulting firms produce daily pieces of ‘research’ that are mere journalistic accounts of what 100 or 300 CEOs say. These CEOs repeat what they have read in the publications of the same business schools, academic institutions and Big Management Consulting firms. The circle of that colossal groupthink is alive and well. Organizations are now fully prepared for the past.

A flipping point in the trend for adopting absurd management ideas needs to be reached. Management needs to be deprogrammed

This book of 200 tweet-sized vignettes, twitter-on-paper, which can be read in no particular order, looks at the other side of things – flipping the coin.  It asks us to apply more rigour and critical thinking in the way we use assumptions and management practices that were created many years ago.

Our real and present danger is not a future of robots and AI, but of current established BS. In this book, you are invited to the Mother of All Call Outs!

Informazioni sull?autore

Leandro Herrero is the CEO of The Chalfont Project, an international firm of organizational architects, and the designer of its products and services in the areas of large scale, behavioural change (Viral Change™), collective leadership and smart organizational designs. He has written several books in these areas and is also an international speaker on organizational culture and leadership topics. To date Viral Change™, the flagship of The Chalfont Project, has impacted on more than a quarter of a million employees so far, in both the private and public sectors, across many geographies. Before founding The Chalfont Project 20 years ago, he spent many years as a hands-on leader in several world class companies, in areas such as pharma R&D, commercial health care roles and health economics. Meaning, he has been on the other side of the fence. Before that he was a practicing clinical psychiatrist, treating patients and teaching in a university at the same time. During that time he wrote 3 books. He completed an MBA, whilst working in the pharmaceutical industry which helped him to transition from medical doctor (basically an alien) to manager (basically an indigenous species). It also allows him to make bad jokes about MBAs, probably its most useful outcome... He is a Fellow member of several management bodies keeping alive some appearance of faithful tribalism.
