( ) Mõnusa huumori ja irooniaga budistlikus Zen kastmes kirjutatud bossi ohjamise õpik. Raamatus mõtestatakse eluterve huumori abiga lahti töötaja staatus ja roll ning antakse näpunäiteid kuidas oma positsiooniga rahul olla ja seda ülemuse oskusliku juhtimisega nauditavaks muuta. Elevante, kes on raamatus bossi allegooriliseks võrdkujuks võib kohata ka töösuhte välistes suhetes. Elevante iseloomustab üldiselt egoistlik, omakasule ning oma ihade rahuldamisele orienteeritud käitumine: pragmaatilisus ja ärakasutamine üle võrdsena võtmise ja empaatia. Aga seepärast ta ongi see, kes ta on. Kui see raamat viitsimatusest õpetust ellu rakendada, või millest iganes, ei viigi meisterliku ülemuse juhtimise ja nn elevandi heitmiseni, mis on ülemuse ohjamise kõrgem tase, aitab see kindlasti kaasa oma positsiooni ja ülemuse kergemini, läbi huumoriprisma, võtmisele. Võib olla hakkadki nägema, et tegu on loomaga keda selles raamatus nii tabavalt kirjeldatakse ja ümber käima õpetatakse. :) If an elephant stomps on your head and there is no one around to see it, did it stomp on your head at all? The answer is yes, if that elephant is your boss. Can anything be done about these enormous, gray, and sometimes smelly beasts? The answer is yes, if you know Business Zen. For thousands of years, Zen masters have plumbed the secrets of the universe while wearing comfortable clothing. Now you, too, can learn the wisdom of the ancients and win valuable prizes. It may be easier than you dare to imagine. Don't you already spend a good part of your day sitting and thinking about nothing for hours on end? That's Zen! You're already doing it! In this simple little handbook, Throwing the Elephant, Stanley Bing, the master of Machiavellian meanness, offers the nicest possible way to manipulate one's executive elephant to achieve enlightenment -- and power. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Stanley Bing follows his enormously successful What Would Machiavelli Do? with another subversively humorous exploration of how work would be different--if the Buddha were your personal consultant. What would the Buddha do--if he had to deal with a rampaging elephant of a boss every day? That is the premise of Stanley Bing's wickedly funny guide to finding inner peace in the face of relentlessly obnoxious, huge, and sometimes smelly bosses. Taking the concept of managing up to a new cosmic plateau, Bing urges no less than a revolution of the spirit in the American workplace, turning overwrought, oppressed, stressed-out employees into models of Zen-like powers of concentration, able to take their elephant-like bosses and grey, lumbering companies and twirl them around the little finger of their consciousness. In Bing's unique tradition of social criticism cum business self-help, Throwing the Elephant presents Four Truths (or possibly Five), a Ninefold Path, and one useful, hilarious guide to workplace sanity, success, and enlightenment that surpasses all understanding, survival.
