I'm Sorry I Broke Your Company: When Management Consultants Are the Problem, Not the Solution

Focusing on the pitfalls of management practices, Karen Phelan critiques the reliance on numerical data in business, arguing that companies are fundamentally about people. Drawing from her extensive experience, she dismantles popular management theories and emphasizes the importance of empathy in effective leadership. Through engaging anecdotes and practical insights, she offers a fresh perspective on strategy, HR, and metrics, while also acknowledging the potential value of consultants when approached wisely. This book serves as both a critique and a guide for better management practices.
