AUTHOR EXPLAINS WHY CORPORATIONS GO WRONG
It's happened too often. Every time we turn around we seem to find ighly-placed corporate managers taking more than their due from the tockholders and employees of corporations that trusted them and put them in positions of authority. Their greed and selfishness never cease to amaze us. But we rarely question the source of these attitudes. Is this me-first approach a part of the American character itself? Or is it something that corporate cultures encourage and nurture? In his new book, 160 Degrees of Deviation: The Case for the Corporate Cynic, author Jerome Alexander exposes the underbelly of corporate culture, showing us how greed and selfishness are nurtured at the middle management level, how the most self-centered and egotistic managers thrive, and what can be done to alleviate the problem. 2003-02-17
