Description
Have you ever felt ignored, put down, deflated, squashed or stupid?
You're in the majority and chances are that feeling was a result of the actions of your manager, your company, or 'the system'. You've been shrunk - by your beliefs, or those of others.
Unshrink challenges these beliefs and their basis: the unspoken myths that shrink us. The myths of management, business and society that tell us we are what we do, that work is more important than life, that capital creates value, that people obey orders, that all change is good, that companies are machines and that economies are systems.
Unshrink establishes new principles. These say that we are not what we do but what we can become, that work does not come first it only serves life, that we are all human, that only good change is good, and that organisations and the world comprise communities and not machines.
"What's more, Unshrink shows that a shift towards decency is good for business - demonstrating the link between happy employees, satisfied customers, profitable companies and healthy societies.
Unshrink - it doesn't have to be this way.
