Description:Who's the organization man? In America he's the prosperous, white-collar worker who lives under the protection of a big organization such as the civil service or a business corporation, & who has a kind of job in which more & more Americans are finding a promise of security & high standards of living. This book is a study of him-how he's trained in college & at work, how he's selected & tested for employment & advancement, how he lives in the family, how he worships, what he thinks, & what he hopes to get out of life. All this is of direct interest to us, for what is happening in America is happening here. We are most of us, to some degree, organization men, & specialization is already ousting the liberal arts from pride of place in our educational system. Is ours to be a society governed by the mediocrity of business method?
