The Dysfunctional Organization

AUTHOR Brumm, Eugenia
PUBLISHER Eugenia Brumm (03/11/2019)
PRODUCT TYPE Paperback (Paperback)

Description

The work environment can be so frustrating that it makes "...you wonder what the company policy is about keeping liquor in your desk drawer," and at times, you wish that you could shout obscenities without being reported to HR. You are working more hours than you should and can't seem to get your work done. You see problem employees get transferred or, even worse, promoted. Meetings, teams and collaboration have gotten out of hand. You are surrounded by poor management. You are tired of hearing that you are the organization's most important asset because you certainly aren't treated that way. You try to push back on being connected 24/7 but it doesn't seem to help. You watch your workplace change after the merger or acquisition, and not for the better. You wonder why they can't seem to fill that job opening with someone who is qualified. And, on top of all that, they keep reconfiguring your work space and it seems to get worse each time that they do that. Everyone knows that these behaviors exist, but you only discuss them in whispers and behind closed doors, because to do so openly would jeopardize your job. Eugenia Brumm pulls back the curtain and exposes what really happens in organizations and explains why, at times, you wish that you could shout obscenities at work without being reported to HR.
