Book Synopsis The New State by : Mary Parker Follett
Download or read book The New State written by Mary Parker Follett and published by . This book was released on 1920 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Having organized neighborhood discussion groups before World War I, Follett traces the dynamics she noticed in these forums and develops some core concepts useful for those working on questions of public deliberation today. She also shows how deliberation informs debates that raged in political theory during her own era. She discusses the works of pluralists (Harold Laski), idealists (T. H. Green and Bernard Bosanquet), and pragmatists (William James) and makes important arguments about the relationship between socialism and democracy. Her work is marked by rigorous thinking about the implications of democratic principles as they relate to political and socioeconomic organization. This book articulates the formation of a so-called new state, growing out of the local activities of citizens and renews the American idea of federalism in order to balance local activities and national purposes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Essential Mary Parker Follett: Ideas We Need Today The Essential Mary Parker Follett: Ideas We Need Today is a comprehensive selection of texts from early 20th-century intellectual pioneer Mary Parker Follett. Her ground-breaking ideas on leadership, diversity, mediation, management and democracy remain impressively relevant in our modern world. For the first time, these ideas have been selected, organized, and structured by an international team into five topics that encompass her philosophy and works. This book presents timeless thoughts on uniting, organizing, integrating, leading, and creating democracy - universal themes that are just as significant and applicable to our professional and personal lives today as they were 100 years ago. About This Book An international collaboration between four professionals, this book was written and edited with the purpose of providing a doorway into Follett's thoughts with practical application that can be used across a wide range of fields. The Essential Mary Parker Follett: Ideas We Need Today is organized into five themes. Valuing Differences Follett believed that every individual's voice was essential to democracy. The differences among people, and the ensuing conflict, were the seeds of innovation. She shows us how differences arising from a single individual, a family, a neighborhood, a nation or internationally can nurture creativity, personal development, social progress and true democracy. We must learn to seek and embrace difference, not fear and avoid it. Group Organization Follett presents group organizing as the basic process of social organization, democracy and personal development. She calls group organization the method of coordination and affirms its creative potential for the group and the individual. The Process of Integration The process of integration is at the heart of Follett's philosophy. It is for this reason that we positioned this theme in the middle and at the heart of the book. Integration builds on differences. It goes beyond positions to uncover true interests and to elicit genuine dialogue among participants. Integration is the meeting of differences, to create something new - thus preserving the integrity of the individual. Leadership The capacity for humans to be willful co-creators of their lives makes leadership a key method according to Follett for personal and collective development. Her avant-garde notions of power-with management, obeying the law of the situation or of following the invisible leader, are some examples of a leadership philosophy that remains as relevant as ever. Democracy Follett defines democracy as the 'genuine union of true individuals'. Her ideas, brought together from various disciplines, provide a framework that can be applied to leadership, group organization and democracy as a whole. The individual is not subsumed by the group in democracy, but rather is affirmed. Democracy invites us to become more complete individuals as we co-create our worlds.

"What I have written about leadership was already literally bespoken by another 40 years before."--Warren Bennis.

Book Synopsis Deming's Profound Changes by : Kenneth T. Delavigne
Download or read book Deming's Profound Changes written by Kenneth T. Delavigne and published by Prentice Hall. This book was released on 1994 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasingly, the demise of many businesses and organizations is being blamed on current western management practice--which can be traced directly back to the 19th century and Frederick Taylor's theory of scientific management. Although W. Edwards Deming proposed a new, more modern philosophy of management decades ago, the western world, instead, continued to practice Taylor's philosophy--by now adulterated and corrupted many times over into a new form of its own (neo-Taylorism). This volume explores--in depth--neo-Taylorism (where it came from and what its beliefs are), Deming's philosophy (his system of profound knowledge and his 14 points), and suggests how Deming's philosophy--if adopted--could be an antidote for today's managerial ineffectiveness. Shows organization and technical managers how to change--using Deming's principles--in order to improve quality in delivered services and products and in employee satisfaction. Analyzes the flaws of Taylorism and Neo-Taylorism-- with point-by-point comparison with Deming's philosophy. Clearly explains the Deming quality philosophy from a conceptual framework that can then be applied (rather than from a recipe or case study format, which has proven to be ineffective). For Executive and Technical Managers (all industries); Quality Managers and Practitioners; Quality, Productivity, Organizational Development Consultants.
Book Synopsis The Moral Philosophy of Management: From Quesnay to Keynes by : Pierre Guillet de Monthoux
Download or read book The Moral Philosophy of Management: From Quesnay to Keynes written by Pierre Guillet de Monthoux and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-06-16 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the foundation of European management philosophy at a dramatic moment in European history: the Cold War has ended; Western capitalism has triumphed over communism. The book reflects on the role of business and management that has emerged in Western capitalism and it searches for the roots of moral philosophy and the philosophies of management derived from the history of economic thought. It traces such ideas from the late 18th century works, Quesnay and Smith, down through the 19th century to the present. The closing chapter of the book sets out ten principles for tight management in a socio-economic doctrine of ideal enterprise and good management.
Book Synopsis Integrative Process by : Margaret Stout
Download or read book Integrative Process written by Margaret Stout and published by . This book was released on 2015-05-05 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mary Parker Follett, a Progressive Era theorist called the "prophet of management" by Peter Drucker, is winning transdisciplinary converts as the world catches up with her. But as the authors argue, her work cannot be appreciated without understanding its grounding in relational process ontology. This book not only provides that necessary key, but it presents in one volume the major ideas and disciplines found in her work. The authors provide the structure, but fill it with Follett's own words--a wonderfully wise decision that lets readers be converted by Mary Parker Follett herself.

Book excerpt: "Although the two intertwined at first, the contributions of these "settlement women" to the development of the administrative state have been largely lost as the new field of public administration evolved from the research bureaus and diverged from social work. Camilla Stivers now shows how public administration came to be dominated not just by science and business but also by masculinity, calling into question much that is taken for granted about the profession and creating an alternative vision of public service.".

Every year, millions of top performers are promoted to management-level jobs—only to discover that the tactics that got them promoted are not the tactics that will make them effective in their new role. In Welcome to Management, Ryan Hawk provides practical, actionable advice and tools designed to ensure that transition is a successful one. He presents a new actionable three-part framework distilled from best practices drawn from in-depth interviews with over 300 of the most forward-thinking leaders around the world, as well as his own professional experience going from exceptional individual producer to new leader.

People reserve their full capacity for emotional commitment for leaders they find credible, and credibility must be earned. • build your team: develop a healthy and sustainable culture of mutual trust and respect that creates cohesion. This includes effective hiring and firing practices. • lead your team: set a clear strategy and vision for your team, communicate effectively, and ultimately drive the results the organization is counting on your team to deliver. Through case studies, hundreds of interviews, and personal stories, the book will help high performers make the leap from individual contributor to manager with greater ease, grace, courage, and effectiveness.
