Description

Message from the distinguished authors: Are things like ‘Hawaiian Shirt Day’ and ‘team building’ events the cause of a crisis in corporate management, or the result? How important is ‘role modeling’ in creating the behaviors we want to see in others? Does the use of the latest buzzwords make us sound smarter or dumber? Will artificial intelligence and automation finally provide us with the robotic workforce we’ve always deserved? Is the future ‘real’ or just a simulated exercise in a giant cosmic video game? In this daily calendar, we answer exactly none of these questions. Truth be told, we don’t even think that deeply about them. However, we do go inside the head of a middle manager in search of some kind of truth about the state of today’s workplace. And what we find should horrify everyone. Be warned.*
