Popular Critiques of Consultancy and a Politics of Management Learning?
指出，关于管理咨询在推广管理思想中作用的流行商业话语常带有批评性，这些批评基于对员工安全、公平、开放及责任透明度的伦理与政治关切，并认为咨询成为管理的替罪羊，从而支持了对管理学习的批判性研究。
In this short article, I argue that popular business discourse on the role of management consultancy in the promotion and translation of management ideas is often critical, informed by more or less implicit ethical and political concerns with employee security, equity, openness and the transparency and legitimacy of responsibility. These concerns are, in part, ‘sayable’ because their object is seen as a scapegoat for management. Nevertheless, combined with the popular form of their expression, they can support and legitimize critical studies of management learning, a discipline which otherwise has become overly concerned with processual and situational phenomena at the expense of broader political dynamics and of the content and consequences of management and management knowledge.
