criticism"'Constructive criticism'? It's an oxymoron. Criticism, by definition, is destructive." (p. 142) flexibility"When people talk about flexibility in business, they usually refer to relationships with people: understanding employees and managers, empathizing with their concerns, and helping them harmonize their work and personal lives. However, besides, personal flexibility, you need organizational flexibility--not just to support making change happen but also to initiate it. You also need flexible managers capable of sparking creativity and innovation as well as committing themselves to strategy-powered evolution or revolution." (p. 119) |
