Reviews

[Oskar Sverdrup · Rating 1 out of 5]

A convoluted opinion piece with sprinkles of relevant information; a really tedious read, and very unfit for learning. If you are a lecturer in management; do not pick this book for your course material.

[BOOK MAN MAAAN · Rating 1 out of 5]

The chapters are unnecessarily long and not to the point. A unpleasant read that is time consuming.

[Joonas Laajanen · Rating 1 out of 5]

How to be a naive left-wing progressive leader.

[Yvonne · Rating 3 out of 5]

read as a supplementary resource to my management course, quite interesting and well organized, with cases and plaint wording, and specific definitions in the marginal.

[Doruk · Rating 4 out of 5]

Really good one. Combining both european and American ways of thinking about management and organizations.
