In lively prose that is as engaging as it is illuminating, Dattner tells a host of true stories of those he has worked with - from the woman who was so scapegoated by her colleagues that she decided to quit, to the clueless boss who was too quick to blame his staff.

Ne însușim idei noi, care să ne facă lumea mai bună, dar nu renunțăm mai întâi la cele învechite și dăunătoare.
