Torr. Mkt torr. Särskilt min monokroma utgåva från -88. Används som kurslitt på svenska universitet as we speak. Men jag gillar Schein. För mer hands-on, läsa gärna hans bok om karriärankare, 'career anchors'.

As an engineering student I was introduced to the 3rd edition in 1994 as part of the curriculum in Production Engineering on Leadership and organisational theory. Still a great read and has had significant impact on my thinking - it is all about the people.
