| Graeber, a prominent member of the Occupy Wall Street movement, is a bit of a non-conformist, to say the least. There’s a reason why he works in academia, and not in the business world. Though a lot of his criticism is justified, then again, is really saying anything a good manager doesn’t know already?
Surely the sign of a good manager or leader is that they *eliminate* BS jobs, not create them?
From our perspective, BS jobs are not proof of capitalism’s flaws, as Graber suggests, but proof that there’s a cultural problem.
And once you acknowledge that the cultural issue exists, you now have a possible path forward. Hurrah! |
