The Anxious Organization: Why Smart Companies Do Dumb Things

Rating:
Summary: If you need to work, you need to read this book.
Review: The examples in this book are so true to life that I instantly recognized characters and conflicts in every chapter. Once I started reading (and it's extremely readable), I began to notice "anxious dynamics" everywhere, just as the author describes them -- in meetings, in office relationships, even in myself. And I've already seen more than once how his suggestions for breaking the anxiety chain can turn an ugly situation around. I recommend this book for everyone who works and especially for those in the ever-so-anxious business of advertising.
