Download or read book The Stupidity Paradox written by Mats Alvesson and published by Profile Books. This book was released on 2016-06-02 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Functional stupidity can be catastrophic. It can cause organisational collapse, financial meltdown and technical disaster. And there are countless, more everyday examples of organisations accepting the dubious, the absurd and the downright idiotic, from unsustainable management fads to the cult of leadership or an over-reliance on brand and image. And yet a dose of stupidity can be useful and produce good, short-term results: it can nurture harmony, encourage people to get on with the job and drive success. This is the stupidity paradox. The Stupidity Paradox tackles head-on the pros and cons of functional stupidity. You'll discover what makes a workplace mindless, why being stupid might be a good thing in the short term but a disaster in the longer term, and how to make your workplace a little less stupid by challenging thoughtless conformity. It shows how harmony and action in the workplace can be balanced with a culture of questioning and challenge. The book is a wake-up call for smart organisations and smarter people. It encourages us to use our intelligence fully for the sake of personal satisfaction, organisational success and the flourishing of society as a whole.

Download or read book Radical Islam s Rules written by Paul Marshall and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 2005-02-25 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A major feature of the rise of Islamism in the Middle East, Asia, Africa and parts of the West is the rapid growth of a starkly repressive version of Islamic shari'a law, often fueled by funds and support from Saudi Arabia. The central purpose of Islamists, including terrorists, is to impose such law in all Muslim lands, and then throughout the world in a new Caliphate. Despite its importance, this worldwide growth of extreme shari'a is under-documented and little understood. By a comparative study over the last twenty-five years of Saudi Arabia, Iran, Pakistan, Sudan, Nigeria, Malaysia, and Indonesia, this book shows its terrible effects on human rights, especially the status of women and religious freedom, of Muslims as well as religious minorities, and on democracy itself. It also shows that such laws are a direct threat to the American interest of advancing democracy and human rights, that the United States lacks a policy for dealing with the spread of extreme shari'a, and concludes with policy recommendations for the United States regarding specific countries confronting extreme shari'a.

Download or read book Protection de l emploi et proc dures de licenciement written by France. Conseil d'analyse économique and published by . This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les entreprises se plaignent souvent de la complexité et de l’incertitude liées aux règles en vigueur en matière de protection des emplois salariés. Ces règles les empêcheraient de s’ajuster aux mutations technologiques et aux rapides changements de demande qui caractérisent les économies modernes. Cette perte d’efficacité et les surcoûts qu’elle implique, décourageraient la création d’emploi et contribuerait au chômage élevé en France. Ce sont des conclusions beaucoup plus mitigées que tirent Olivier Blanchard et Jean Tirole dans leur rapport, qui se penche sur les institutions et règles de la protection de l’emploi en France. Les contraintes administratives et légales ainsi que les indemnités et paiements versés lors de licenciements semblent en effet accroître la durée du chômage et rendre le marché du travail moins réactif, mais l’effet net sur le taux de chômage serait, lui, incertain. La généralisation des contrats à durée déterminée introduit cependant un marché du travail dual peu efficace, d’autant plus que la législation actuelle incite à ne pas transformer ces contrats en emplois plus stables. Olivier Blanchard et Jean Tirole s’interrogent sur la rationalité de la politique française d’indemnisation du chômage et de contrôle des licenciements. Le système actuel dans lequel l’entreprise ne paie rien à la caisse d’assurance chômage en cas de licenciement implique une double incitation à licencier. Ils défendent l’idée que, comme toute externalité, les coûts sociaux liés aux pertes d’emploi doivent être « internalisés » et qu’il conviendrait donc d’instaurer un principe revenant à taxer les licenciements. Ils donnent divers arguments justifiant que cette taxe ne devrait pas financer intégralement le montant des assurances chômage versées, mais des systèmes de responsabilisation des entreprises, sur le modèle de ceux existant dans de nombreux États américains, pourraient être introduits. La contrepartie devrait en être une moindre ingérence des juges dans les procédures de licenciement. Les diverses propositions faites par Olivier Blanchard et Jean Tirole sont discutées par Fiorella Kostoris Padoa Schioppa, et par Jacques Freyssinet, qui ne partagent pas toutes les conclusions dur rapport. Jacques Freyssinet, en particulier, se montre sceptique quant à la remise en cause radicale des compromis successifs qui ont construit le système français d’indemnisation du chômage. Substituer à un régime paritaire mutualisé un régime de taxes payées par chaque entreprise à une agence indépendante relève, selon lui, d’une vision réductrice des problèmes sociaux liés aux licenciements.
