Philosophy
Thrasymachus has two over all arguments. The first is that justice is the interest of the stonger; justice is whatever the powerful say it is. The second is more personal: injustice is more profitable than justice (although no one was supposed to use the word profitable.) The idea is that it is better to cheat and get away with it, while doing the right thing puts you at a disadvantage. Here's the question. Is there any truth in what Thrasymachus says?

There are many different ways in which firms can organize themselves: There are flat organizations and there are tall organizations. There are organizations structured by products, divisions, and geography. But one thing nearly all structures have in common is a chain of command, or hierarchy. Do companies have to set up that way? Tony Hsieh doesn’t think so. Hsieh is the CEO of Zappos, the online seller of shoes. Hsieh is a guy who thinks outside of the box. When...

Burke: Training in the Service of Change; Too often, training in organizations is conducted because competitors are doing it or because some executive believes that conducting a certain program would be a good thing to do, regardless of whether any evidence exists that the program actually works. Training is, indeed, capable of helping organizational members learn and develop, but training targeted at supporting and enhancing organization change can have considerable payoffs. Action Learning; This form of training and development combines...
