Beating The System - Using Creativity To Outsmart Bureaucracies (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by Berrett-Koehler, San Francisco, 2005
ISBN 10: 1576753301 ISBN 13: 9781576753309
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. When was the last time you dealt with a bureaucracy-the phone company, an airline, a hospital, school, or government agency-and got what you wanted without weaving through a maze of infuriating hand-offs? Have you found these systems to be utterly indifferent to the inconvenience or hardship they cause?Russell Ackoff and Sheldon Rovin say, "Enough is enough!" They have extensively studied organizational systems-how they function and malfunction, what drives them, and where their weaknesses are. Here they share both perversely entertaining anecdotes about the abuse of individuals by various bureaucracies and detail the creative-and deeply satisfying-approaches these people used to get even. Best of all, they offer successful strategies and tactics you can use to pinpoint the weakness of any system and exploit it to your advantage. This book is for anyone who has faced the bureaucratic blank wall. The authors explain how systems are designed, how they function (and, particularly, malfunction), where their weaknesses are, and the incentives that drive them - as well as how to be creative in beating a system. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
