| Abstract: | In a recent Organization Dynamics editorial, the editors for this journal presented a controversial argument in favor of management fads. The editorial implied that too many managers had developed the potentially harmful response of dismissing any new concept, such as TQM, employee involvement, and self-directed teams, as nothing more that a fad. Bohl and Luthans applaud the way companies such as Motorola, General Electric, and Procter & Gamble have been challenged by these concepts and turned them into productive approaches. |
