Description: Paul Culmee & Kailash Awati - The Heretic's Guide to Best Practices. Softcover published by iUniverse, USA, 2011, 394 pages, 631 grams. ISBN 978-1-4620-5853-2. Signed by one of the authors (Kailash.) The reality of managing complex problems in organisations. When it comes to solving complex problems, we often perform elaborate rituals in the guise of best practices that promise a world of order, certainty, and control. But reality paints a far different picture, which practitioners are often reluctant to discuss. A witty yet rigorous journey through the seedy underbelly of organisational problem solving, The Heretic’s Guide to Best Practices pinpoints the reasons why best practices don’t work as advertised and what can be done about it.In Very Good condition - minimal cover wear, side page edges have an area of extremely faint discoloration.
