I must be more out-of-the-loop than I'd thought, as I'd not realized
Semler had written another book. how does this one compare with his
"Maverick"?
In my own study of natural workplaces (e.g., AES, perhaps, and Cascades,
others) I think they are often difficult to find because educative,
self-directed, and transparent workplaces no longer possess the
organizational ego (they're organizationally transcendent?) of most other
places. Thus there's not a need for the "look at how great we are!"
attitude of so many corporations.
Now I need to go get that book . . . !
Best,
Terri
