Beyond Command and Control

De: John Seddon

Narrado por: John Seddon

This audiobook offers to solve the UK productivity conundrum and dramatically improve health and care services while reducing their cost and much more, besides. And it is no promise or dream. It is evidenced by those who have followed John's prescription, which is to change the way they think about management.

Beyond Command and Control exposes the fallacies in command and control management, and they are not what people expect them to be. It also gives practical illustrations of what it has taken for leaders of service organisations to cross a management-thinking Rubicon. The results are compelling and the means unusual.

The deep social change we all thirst for

In some future time when humans are finally able to get along with each other, we will look back. This book will be viewed as one of the milestones of change. A pithy invitation into the incredible world that could heal us beyond imagination. Beyond Command and Control is so well designed. Over and over again in reading it, I find references that are invaluable and incredibly powerful: often shared in less than a sentence. I've read a number of John's books: Beyond Command and Control is not only wise and succinct, but with each reading I learn so much.

The audio book would not be complete with out John's awakening voice which cuts through here more than in any other context I've ever heard him speak. His empathetic and outraged leadership is astonishingly refreshing in such a dark time.

If you are serious about making the world a better place to live in, this is a great place to start.

Fantastic!

John Seddon has beautifully articulated the counterintuitive truth that management squints to see. Bravo!
I’d have stopped there but the system requires 15 words!!!
