Book excerpt: In this book, first published in 1988, the author shows that the movement for industrial democracy has deep roots in British history, and looks at the economic and political potential of industrial democracy as a mechanism to halt 100 years of industrial decline. The author advocates the general adoption of the industrial co-operative form of organisation on two grounds: it provides for authentic industrial democracy, and it maximises commitment to industrial regeneration. Lucid and jargon-free, The Third Way explores the options for economic and institutional change in a mature industrial economy. This title will be of interest to students of business studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study, first published in 1979, analysed the international trend towards "industrial democracy" in the industrial relations practices in Europe, Japan and the United States. The development of industrial democracy was occurring through the establishment of employee and union participation on boards of directors and, at the shop floor level, in the extension of the role and power of works councils. In other countries the main development was through collective bargaining methods on labor-management relations and management decision-making. The authors examine various countries and explore any highlights, lessons and ideas that might be transferable from one political and social context to another.

Book excerpt: John Leitch's epoch marking book, “Man to Man," showing how this industrial Moses has solved the labor problem for forty-five or more corporations—how he has secured bigger pay for labor, and obtained from 30% to 300% more work, enthusiastically given, from the workers — how he has completely done away, not only with strikes, but with all labor dissatisfaction and antagonism — how he has transformed the whole relation between employer and employee. * * * * *"I CAN SEE nothing ahead but disaster if we accept it as a fact that the natural relation between employer and employee is one of competition and war and that their rights are to be adjudicated either through trial of battle or trial at law. We used to think the big function of a medical man was to cure; now we know that it is to prevent. Would we have given any particular credit to Surgeon General Gorgas if, instead of taking fever out of the Canal Zone, he had built a series of splendid hospitals so that the victims might comfortably be cured? . . . Strikes are culminations of ill-will. Is there not room for practicing a littlepreventive strike medicine?" Those striking words may be taken as the keynote of John Leitch's epoch-marking if not epoch-making book, “Man to Man: The Story of Industrial Democracy." Surely the author is not going too far when he says in his introduction, “The whole future of the United States is bound up in the establishment of a happy relation between the employer and the employee." If that is so, then it would be difficult to conceive of anything more fundamental, more constructive or bigger with practical promise — to say nothing of still more practical and triumphant achievement—than this remarkable volume. Do not mistake me if I say that John Leitch originated the American "Soviet" years before we ever heard of Russian Soviets; for the "Soviet" system which this industrial wonder-worker has put into successful operation in over a score of important plants, — with the hearty cooperation and to the lasting “benefit of their owners as well as their employees, — is as simply, mightily, and gloriously American as Abraham Lincoln, as the very stars and stripes themselves. Indeed, we are justified in likening these sane and conspicuously successful applications of Industrial Democracy, as Leitch calls it, to the soviets, only because the former may be thought to be our characteristic, constructive, conservatively radical answer to the same world-wide demand on the part of the toilers for their place in the sun, a demand which the Russian revolutionists, we are tempted to say, have met just as characteristically with destruction and terrorism. In a few words, this astonishing book, which is a record of practice, not of theory, tells how Leitch has solved the labor problem for forty- five or more large corporations: how he has completely done away with strikes in these corporations—how he has obtained from 30% to 300% more work, enthusiastically given, from the workers—how he has secured bigger pay for labor and bigger profits for capital—how he has entirely eliminated labor antagonism and dissatisfaction and changed the whole relation between employer and employed. In not one of those plants has there been a strike since his plan was introduced and carried out." In not a single one of those plants has there been labor dictation, labor antagonism or dissatisfaction. And every one of those plants has increased production, lowered costs, paid bigger wages, made bigger profits. By the workings of his unique method, John Leitch does away entirely with the ill-will and antagonism of labor. He does away with time-killing tactics. He does away with a gigantic waste of raw material. He completely settles the hiring and firing problem—thus doing away for all time with excessive labor "turnover." —The Business Philosopher
Download or read book The Politics Industry written by Katherine M. Gehl and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2020-06-23 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leading political innovation activist Katherine Gehl and world-renowned business strategist Michael Porter bring fresh perspective, deep scholarship, and a real and actionable solution, Final Five Voting, to the grand challenge of our broken political and democratic system. Final Five Voting has already been adopted in Alaska and is being advanced in states across the country. The truth is, the American political system is working exactly how it is designed to work, and it isn't designed or optimized today to work for us—for ordinary citizens. Most people believe that our political system is a public institution with high-minded principles and impartial rules derived from the Constitution. In reality, it has become a private industry dominated by a textbook duopoly—the Democrats and the Republicans—and plagued and perverted by unhealthy competition between the players. Tragically, it has therefore become incapable of delivering solutions to America's key economic and social challenges. In fact, there's virtually no connection between our political leaders solving problems and getting reelected. In The Politics Industry, business leader and path-breaking political innovator Katherine Gehl and world-renowned business strategist Michael Porter take a radical new approach. They ingeniously apply the tools of business analysis—and Porter's distinctive Five Forces framework—to show how the political system functions just as every other competitive industry does, and how the duopoly has led to the devastating outcomes we see today. Using this competition lens, Gehl and Porter identify the most powerful lever for change—a strategy comprised of a clear set of choices in two key areas: how our elections work and how we make our laws. Their bracing assessment and practical recommendations cut through the endless debate about various proposed fixes, such as term limits and campaign finance reform. The result: true political innovation. The Politics Industry is an original and completely nonpartisan guide that will open your eyes to the true dynamics and profound challenges of the American political system and provide real solutions for reshaping the system for the benefit of all.
