Some ideas for The Management Letters

• Identification of staff with companies

• Multiple cultures at work

• financials ..

• All posts should be emotionally engaging and interesting

• Maybe some marxism?

• Something EU related, such as an essay on regulations

• Summarize some of the Scrum articles that I found …

• Why does a unit have the leader it has? Is the leader a result of subconscious group processes (bottom up) or rather of a top down process? When is which leader chosen? This question is not straight forward. For example, subconscious group processes might evoke some sort of a fitting approach in upper layers to choose a leader that fits the group.

• Elaborate why every organizational activity is essentially an activity to establish a certain power structure. Why do you think that organizational culture activities are locking people in a certain behaviour? Why are certain approaches, like SCRUM, mechanisms to create processes that lock people in? Is establishing processes about reducing innovation and critical thinking? … thus again establishing a power structure? Note: Not all power structures are evil.

• Is it possible to observe Social Dualism (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_dualism) in organisations? I wonder if different types of work (more operational, more creative, etc.) elicit different social systems?
