Sobre o que é?
This big-picture view of how organizations and nations work shows how people feel living within these systems.
Recommendation
Educator, playwright and consultant Barry Oshry’s poetic, allegorical manifesto is unlike any other business book. Drawing from decades of observing and helping dysfunctional organizations, Oshry offers valuable insights and wisdom in this update of his 1995 book. His refreshing, illuminating insights will help leaders and followers shed any mutual antagonism. As you gain understanding from his text, you will see that many behaviors within organizations are automatic or “systemic” and rarely personal. This knowledge equips you to improve the natural dynamics of any group. getAbstract believes you will gain a more complete picture of why relationships work as they do and of how to change systems and yourself for the better.
