“There's increasing consciousness that a "command and control" style of management which one associates with a male model isn't necessarily what works anymore, especially with small to medium sized companies. There's increasing evidence that a more flexible management style, where responsibility is distributed up and down the line, is what works best. And that kind of management style is one that will allow individual workers more flexibility - men and women.” MenKindIndividualLinesConsciousnessResponsibilityCompanyStyleModelsEvidenceMen And WomenManagementWorkersMalesCommandMediumsAssociatesFlexibilityFlexibleUp And DownCommand And Control Author:Betty Friedan

“While we tend to conceive of the operations of the mind as unified and transparent, they're actually chaotic and opaque. There's no invisible boss in the brain, no central meaner, no unitary self in command of our activities and utterances. There's no internal spectator of a Cartesian theater in our heads to applaud the march of consciousness across its stage.” MindSelfBrainConsciousnessStageActivityTheaterInvisibleCommandOperationsInternalsMarchBossSpectatorsTransparentChaoticUnifiedUtteranceOpaque Author:Daniel Dennett
