Management Mysterium: The Quest for Progress - Paperback
by Bob Emiliani (Author)
Why does Lean management keep losing to classical management - even when the evidence overwhelmingly favors it? The answer isn't strategic. It's spiritual.
In Management Mysterium, the author exposes the invisible force that keeps executives clinging to outdated practices: secular spirituality. Tracing a remarkable lineage from medieval Christian Church teachings, through the field of economics, to today's C-suite, the book reveals how superstition, faith, and uncritical acceptance shape supposedly rational decisions.
The third volume in the author's trilogy on executive resistance to progressive management, Management Mysterium goes where reason and data cannot - into the unconscious beliefs that lead top executives to blame people for broken processes, prefer simplistic answers to root-cause analysis, and treat outdated traditions as truth.
Provocative and unsparing in its critique of both leaders and the Lean movement itself, it is a measured, evidence-informed study for managers, scholars, and Lean practitioners seeking a deeper understanding of why thoughtful reform so often fails to take hold.
