Richard Hamermesh goes against this trend and stresses the necessity of getting back to basics.
To educator and consultant Richard Hamermesh, the procession of chic management trends that are regularly foisted upon today's business community never really do improve performance--and only serve instead to further alienate an increasingly frustrated workforce. In Fad-Free Management: The Six Principles That Drive Successful Companies and Their Leaders, he urges a return to the straightforward values that guided businesses to the top long before the current crop of buzzword-driven quick fixes.
