The history of management consulting : The New Yorker

This was really good and surprising. I did not knew much about Taylor and Taylorism, except the vague stereotype that he and his acolytes were nothing more than scientific slavedrivers. Finding out that some were labour advocates is at least surprising.

It isn't so much a history of management consulting as it is a history of the advent of business as a science.

Interesting that Conde Nast, The New Yorker's parent company, has recently been a high profile client of McKinsey.

Talk about an incoherent article.
