Items related to Gods of Management: The Changing Work of Organisations
Synopsis
This is a sparkling and witty allegory of the four types of organisation. The club culture, ruled over by Zeus; the role culture, whose patron saint is Apollo; the task culture, owing allegiance to Athena; and the existential culture, whose people come under the orbit of Dionysus. It is required reading for everybody who wants to be survivor in a world of changing organisational culture. (1994-10-10)
