Description
"In this exploration of modern hierarchies, organizational behavior expert Harold J. Leavitt explains what has driven this disconnect between current management theory and the realities of working life. More important, he looks at how this disconnect affects today's managers, who struggle to operate democratically within results-driven, authoritarian hierarchies." "Top Down explores how innovative movements, from participative management to analytic management to "hot groups," have changed hierarchies. This book also shows how modern "manager/leaders" can cope with the conundrums they face in today's hierarchies."--Jacket.
