Why read it?

1 author picked Magnetic Nonsense as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

We enjoyed reading Magnetic Nonsense because of the way it calls out the corporate bullshit bingo and challenges the management trends that are dominating organizations across the world.

For me, AK, it even challenges some of my own perceptions of concepts that I have spent a lot of time on at workfor instance, cultural valueswhich was refreshing and thought-provoking. I thought it was a fun read too, and I like that the book’s points and arguments are based on a collection of research, data, and case studies. The author is aggressively passionate about cutting the rubbish…

From Ivanna and Anne Kathrine's list on improving your work life one small step at a time.
