5.0 out of 5 stars Thoughtful, literate, insightful, helpful, Jun 20 2001
By 
Iain C. Massey "iaincm" (Balingup, WA Australia) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Gods of Management: The Changing Work of Organizations (Paperback)
Declaration: I like Charles Handy. I've met him and debated with him, and I've been reading his works from time to time over the last 7 years or so. I like the cut of his jib.

I'm a management consultant, specialising in business information systems, and Handy brings a fresh and challenging perspective, and a handful of very powerful and natural conceptual tools, to the business of understanding organisations.

He's also a pleasure to read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Arguably the most philosophical among all management gurus, April 12 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Gods of Management: The Changing Work of Organizations (Paperback)
Many other management thinkers create new models and popularize them as their masterwork. Charles Handy is different. He just reminds us about things that have happened. Greek gods were already part of our civilization. Yet it takes one man like Handy to recognize it and analyze it so creatively

5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating organizational study., Mar 12 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Gods of Management: The Changing Work of Organizations (Paperback)
This is a really interesting book. Handy uses the personalities of the gods to typify certain management styles. It makes the styles more memorable and easier to discuss with colleagues
