Where they have more personal choice in their work, but also share more committment with their colleagues to a bigger purpose. build organizations of which we can be proud. At an operational level it is a show more book about choice, about the choice individuals make and the latitude of discretion created within organizations to support these choices. The book examines eight companies pioneered choice and democracy and shows how companies like BP, McKinsey, Unisys and Goldman Sachs and strengthening employee engagement and collaboration by developing working relationships and working practices based on choice - by supporting the freedom they have. show lessTags
