Download or read book Managerial Ideology and the Social Control of Deviance in Organizations written by Richard M. Weiss and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1986-09-05 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Weiss examines the disease model of alcoholism and how bureaucratically rigid organizations use it to justify their control of employee behavior. He looks at the relations among control programs encountered by management and their inclination to have an alcoholism program based on this disease model. The results of his research suggest that those companies faced with greater control problems tend to have a more bureaucratic organizational structure and are more likely to base their alcoholism program on the view that it is a progressive, fatal disease characterized by poor on-the-job performance.

Download or read book Leadership written by Süleyman Göker and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2018-09-19 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

This book also aims to provide experiences and reflections across a variety of sectors and organizational structures rather than focusing on one set of definitions (as is the case in current leadership sources).

Download or read book Understanding Deviance in a World of Standards written by Andrea Fried and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-02-05 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Standards have become widespread regulatory tools that are set to promote global trade, innovation, efficiency, and quality. They contribute significantly to the creation of safe, reliable, and high quality services and technologies to ensure human health, environmental protection, or information security. Yet intentional deviations from standards by organizations are often reported in many sectors, which can either contribute to or challenge the measures of safety and quality they are designed to safeguard. Why then, despite all potential consequences, do organizations choose to deviate from standards in one way or another? This book uses structuration theory - covering aspects of both structure and agency - to explore the organizational conditions and contradictions under which different types of deviance occur. It provides empirical explanations for deviance in organizations that go beyond an understanding of individual misbehaviour where mainly a single person is held responsible. Case studies of software-developing organizations illustrate insightful generalizations on standards as a mechanism of sensemaking, resource allocation, and sanctioning, and provide ground to re-think corporate responsibility when deviating from standards in the 'audit society'.

Download or read book The Blair Supremacy written by Lewis Minkin and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2014-06-16 with total page 856 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lewis Minkin has immense experience of the Labour Party and has acted as adviser to two major internal reviews of the internal party organisation. As the author of two widely acclaimed and original studies on the Labour Party, The Labour Party Conference and The Contentious Alliance, he possesses an unrivalled grasp of the subtleties and nuances of Labour’s internal relationships. The Blair Supremacy is groundbreaking in its investigation of the processes, methods, character and politics of party management, during a period when Blair strengthened his own position as he and his allies and managers drove the party through a ferment of new developments under the name ‘New Labour’. For this book Minkin has been able to draw on a wealth of sources unavailable to other scholars. What is uncovered here is revealing and at times startling. It includes an extensive covert internal organisation, a culture which facilitated manipulation and what can be described as a rolling coup. These developments are rigorously and critically examined with a strong focus on three fundamental questions: How were these changes achieved? Was it, as it was often represented, a complete supremacy? Why did it end so badly with Blair being forced, in effect, to step down? The study challenges many misconceptions and sheds new light on the Blair legacy and on the intense controversies surrounding him. It also adds greatly to our understanding of some acute contemporary problems in British political life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The right to partake of capitalism is exactly what our United States Consti tuti on is referring to as being the pursuit of happiness. If you or any person so chooses to apply yourself, study and learn, and acquire useable and salable knowledge, skills, and abiliti esand then apply these towards the economic good of a company/business/corporationyou just might become greedy and rich. Does relying upon our own self-motivation and self-determination means that we are greedy? Does working many hours of mandatory overtime at our chosen career mean that we are overly self-seeking? The answer to these questions and many more are all within
Download or read book Dirty Business written by Maurice Punch and published by SAGE. This book was released on 1996-12-23 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on both theory and major case studies, this book provides a much-needed sociological and comparative analysis of the world of the manager in the context of misconduct within business organizations. Organizational misbehaviour and crime have been relatively neglected in the social sciences, particularly in business studies. Analyses have tended to be fragmentary, overly slanted towards narrow external views - such as those of legal control and public policy - and predominantly North American. Dirty Business rectifies this by offering a broad sociological perspective related to work, organizations and management, supported by a range of key international case studies. In developing his arguments, Maurice Punch
