Unlearning the Fifth Discipline Power, Politics and Control in Organizations

This extremely interesting study on learning organizations seeks to provide a critical insight into what really goes on in so-called perfect work environments. The rich, qualitative data collected during the course of the author's research in several Indian organizations supports her view that, in fact, members of learning organizations coerce, manipulate, and bargain with each other to achieve their personal and organizational goals. Written in a simple, narrative style, the book generates a new perspective on work environments and the type of relationship that may exist between employers and employees in learning organizations.Akella, Devi is the author of 'Unlearning the Fifth Discipline Power, Politics and Control in Organizations' with ISBN 9780761997399 and ISBN 0761997393.
