The vehicle the authors propose as being best suited to encourage a comprehensive reassessment of the ideologies that have brought about the credit crunch is coaching. They set out a more radical approach to the practice based on scepticism, particularly as it has been developed from the later twentieth century onwards by key postmodern critical theorists. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOne of the reasons organizational ideologies go uncontested is that critics of destructive group-think are often suppressed and silenced. Overall, this book aims to show how coaching can widen its intellectual range such that it can become a progressively more effective technique within organizational life resisting group-think: a positive force for preventing crises of the kind that have caused such havoc in contemporary economic and political life, on a truly international scale.","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45281392754839,"sku":"9780230240544","price":3672.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780230240544.webp?v=1769299105","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/rethinking-coaching-critical-theory-and-the-economic-crisis-9780230240544","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
