Book description
In Olympus Inc., Bernie Neville and Tim Dalmau use the ancient Greek
Gods to explores the values, practices and beliefs that underpin
businesses, schools, corporations and the like, and through this they
illuminate the complex forces and currents that are at work in modern
organizations. They demonstrate that autocratic Zeus, uber-efficient
Apollo, the slippery trickster Hermes in fact, all the gods of the Greek
pantheon - are alive and thriving in our workplaces, clubs and
institutions. By combining ancient myth with archetypal psychology,
Neville and Dalmau deliver an approach to the complex issues of
organizational change. Their approach is creative and engaging, but also
down-to-earth and practical. Olympus Inc. includes a discussion of the
DNAI (Dalmau-Neville Archetypology Indicator), a powerful and easily
applicable tool that distills the theory, or archetypal psychology, in
ways that enable organizations to see themselves not only as they are...
but as they want to be.
