1 年Thanks for sharing the summary of this book Rohan Nabar. Looks like an interesting read.
Former Professor, FMS, University of Delhi
1 年Nice to find another important and short review. Long before 'Celebrate Your Failure' became a slogan, our own Late Prof. Udai Pareek worked on two fundamental motives in every human effort: Fear of Failure and Hope of Success. His famous OCTAPACE instrument tried to capture the organization climate of Openness and Experimentation-- two 'factors' that reverberate through Amy Anderson's work.
