Out of the Box Thinking for Successful Managers - William F. Roth - Bog

Through decades of teaching management theory, the author has frequently questioned many modern-day management practices. This book explains, in a user-friendly and humorous manner, why these practices are based on worn out logic that needs to be rethought. The book reviews a range of management theories, including Six Sigma, downsizing, and management by objective. After showing where the holes lie, it offers alternative approaches that have proven effective in a growing number of private and public sector organizations, including some that enable a more positive workplace culture.
