Bücher von Scott Adams

Back after a four-year hiatus, New York Times bestselling author Scott Adams presents an outrageous look at work, home and everyday life in his new book, Dilbert and the Way of the Weasel. Building on Dilbert's theory that 'All people are idiots', Adams now says, 'All people are idiots. And they are also weasels.' Just ask anyone who worked at Enron. In this book, Adams takes a look into the Weasel Zone, the giant grey area between good moral behaviour and outright felonious activities. In the Weasel Zone, where most people reside, everything is misleading, but not exactly a lie. Building on his popular comic strip, Adams looks into work, home and everyday life and exposes the way of the weasel for everyone to see. With appearances from all the regular comic strip characters, Adams and Dilbert are at the top of their game - master satirists who expose the truth while making us laugh our heads off.

Warning: more stupidity ahead (also selfishness and horniness) Nostradamus, step aside. Scott Adams has turned futurist and gives us a much needed look into his skewed crystal ball. Here's a taste of what you'll learn in "The Dibert Future: " in the future, life definitely won't be like "Star Trek" (or else we'd never leave the holodeck) there will be a huge market for technology products that help workers goof off and still get paidInternet capacity will increase indefinitely to keep up with the egos of the people using it it will be increasingly easy to find customers gullible enough to buy any product, no matter how worthless and stupid it is your competitors will remain just as clueless as your are There's only one word to describe life in "The Dibert Future: " HILARIOUS.

Ausgehend vom Prinzip: Die unfähigsten Mitarbeiter werden systematisch in die Position versetzt, in der sie am wenigsten Schaden anrichten können - ins Management, schildert Scott Adams das Innenleben großer Unternehmen und die dort alltäglichen Absurditäten.Mit spitzer Feder und ironischer Distanz analysiert er die verschiedensten Themen des heutigen Büroalltags: Meetings, Downsizing, Teamarbeit, die großen Lügen des Managements, Projektmanagement, Budgetierung, Marketing, ISO 9000. Die satirischen Analysen sind angereichert mit einer Unzahl Cartoons seines Helden Dilbert, der die Konsequenzen des modernen Management auf seinen Büroalltag am eigenen Leib erleben muß. Alle 26 Kapitel rundet Adams mit Briefen leidgeprüfter Angestellter ab, deren tatsächliche Erlebnisse den Abenteuern Dilberts in nichts nachstehen.Eine höchst unterhaltsames Spiegelbild der nackten Wirklichkeit in den Unternehmen.
