Redefining management
Management is more art than science which dooms any attempt to find basic principles. Yet, some management practices prove remarkably persistent despite a lack of evidence that they actually work. This would not be such a big problem if they were harmless, but some have been demonstrated to reduce performance. Now, with new insights from brain science obtained through functional MRI, we have a better chance to understand what motivates people and can find better ways to manage.
