A timely guide for surviving and keeping one's sanity in the dysfunctional work environments which have become all too common in the 21st century. - Lawrence Mantrone, Founder & Managing Director of Adaptyze LLC, and Adjunct Professor, NYU School of Professional Studies STOP MANAGING START THINKING delivers a vault's worth of disruption in a mere 158 pages. It skewers the "friendly fascism" of corporate culture. It confronts the dis-economies of scale directly; and it challenges fallacies of all kinds, from deadlines to multi-tasking. With clarity and pragmatism, this anonymous author dares you to abandon the fog of orthodoxy and dares you to drag yourself out of the vortex of inefficiency. Plenty of blame is placed on all the forces against thinking which have too long corrupted human productivity, but no industry is spared in this merciless dissection of modern management.
