I'm also reminded of the the recent post on The Creative World's Bullshit Industrial Complex [0]. There are some gems in here but I can't help but feel like a lot of them are just uninspired remixes of what came before. The list I want to see is of the "great management books". Ones that:
- had an effect on firms both in the time the book was published and in subsequent business "generations"
- influenced subsequent works of note.
- remain relevant to business today
Where is that list?
