Sinossi
Questa è "La legge di Parkinson": una intuizione geniale, che da un saggio pubblicato su The Economist nel 1955 si è incarnata in un libro definito "diabolico" dal Financial Times. Ironico, iconoclasta e divertente, a distanza di cinquant'anni dalla sua prima uscita "La legge di Parkinson" conserva tutta la sua (drammatica) attualità nell'analizzare i difetti e i problemi delle organizzazioni. "La legge di Parkinson", come scrisse il duca di Edimburgo nella sua introduzione all'edizione inglese, "è giustamente diventato un classico".

”Работата се увеличава дотолкова, доколкото да запълни времето, предоставено за извършването ѝ.” Много британско остроумие и сатира от самия автор на законите на Паркинсон, който освен всичко друго, си е бил и съвсем истински професор. А осмените бъгове са си реални. —— “1. „Чиновникът желае да умножа Leggi tutto
This is a perfect blend of humour and management. Should have been widely-read, perhaps was, but this book is so old, even my copy dates back to 1965. I don't think it is in reprint any more. Which is kind of sad, for a book that explains how every cocktail party has a spiral in its midst.
Work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion . Cyril Northcote Parkinsons mest kjente bok, en essaysamling fra 1957, er kort, lettlest, fysisk vakker og til tider hysterisk morsom. Den forsøker å forklare alle organisasjoners tilsynelatende fullstendige manglende evne til selvregu Leggi tutto
How are British and French laws dictated largely by the layout of the seats in the legislature? Why can you easily get approval for the ten million dollar nuclear power plant from the same committee that will never approve the five hundred dollar bike shed? Why does an institution lose all relevance Leggi tutto
