    Dear colleagues,

    Some of you have inquired about an overview of humanistic management. This September, Cambridge University Press will publish just such an overview. It develops the humanistic paradigm focusing on protecting dignity and promoting well being and outlines the relevance for management research, practice, pedagogy and policy.

    Feel free to check it out:
    Humanistic Management: protecting dignity- promoting well being

    Here are some of the endorsements:

    This book is a revelation!

    Stewart Wallis, former Director, New Economics Foundation.


    Read this important, accessible, and beautifully-developed book. You will be glad you did!

    Sandra Waddock, Galligan Chair of Strategy, Boston College

     

    This is an excellent book which expounds on the basics for stakeholder responsibility: protection of dignity and contribution to wellbeing.

    Klaus Schwab, Executive Chairman of the World Economic Forum

     

    Michael Pirson provides a sterling upgrade to the inadequate business economic theories that currently shape democratic capitalism. With this brilliant book, Pirson helps readers see a path toward better theory, which has the potential of spurring better practice and a more meritorious future for us all.

    Roger Martin, former Dean, Rotman School of Management.



    Thanks and apologies for indulging.
