The Seven Deadly Sins Of Management

By Jonathan Ellis

Pride, envy, gluttony, lust, wrath, covetousness, sloth - these are the Seven Deadly Sins. Much of business today is based on these sins. Managers are encouraged to be proud of their results (pride), to attack the competition (wrath), to hoard knowledge (covetousness), and to create shareholder value, no matter the consequences (lust). But at what cost? Just as the Seven Deadly Sins conspire to destroy our soul in daily life, so they conspire to destroy our business.In this original and reflective book - laced with dark humour - Jonathan Ellis and Rene Tissen provide warnings about current management practice and thinking based upon the Seven Deadly Sins. Each chapter examines a Sin, and begins with a "Sin-O-Meter" to discover your rating for that particular Sin.
