Book description
Why read it?
1 author picked Factory and Manager in the USSR as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is one of two books I kept by my bedside during my three years as head of an academic department.
It taught me how building a network of peers and a loyal team of subordinates are keys to survival under a suspicious boss. Berliner based his work on hundreds of interviews of managers who left the Soviet Union before, during, and after World War II. From a scholarly point of view, the book contains astonishing detail and insights from the inside of the Soviet system in its most secretive and repressive period.
From Mark's list on working inside Soviet communism.
