Management Crisis and Business Revolution describes the enormous gap between business theories on the one hand and the realities of the workplace and uncertainties of the marketplace on the other. In place of reasoned management and disciplined organization, John Harte depicts daily disorder, vagueness, and confusion instead of the logical processes of classroom case histories with rational solutions. He provides tales of an abundance of irrational judgments, personal foibles, and business follies. Formerly a top operational manager with multinational organizations, Harte applies his hands-on knowledge of the business world to a realistic examination of workplace conditions.
