Roger Martin

Are you a heroic leader? Or are you a passive follower? Chances are you act like one or the other, and it's doing serious damage to your company, your customers, and your colleagues. The reason behind your harmful behavior? The fear that you'll be held responsible for any failures -which often makes failure the inevitable outcome. Management guru Roger Martin calls this fear of failure and the behavior it causes "The Responsibility Virus." With lively case studies based on real business practice, he shows how the Virus "infects" corporations and nonprofit organizations large and small. No message could be more urgent in today's business climate.Martin lays out a wholly original way of understanding group dynamics. His impassioned belief in the "power of one" will be required reading for any of us who think about how we function in organizations, from the boardroom to the mail room.

This book is a collection of Murphy's Law cartoons by Roger Martin, from his calendar series that has been reproduced around the world for over twenty-five years. Murphy's Law is a principle that all people acknowledge as being true, testamented in the every day situations that we find ourselves in. The principle says that if anything can go wrong it will. Roger has skillfully cartooned these events in a way that we can laugh at the situations we all find ourselves in from time to time.

Nous avons tous un rapport particulier avec le train, des souvenirs d'échappées belles, de rencontres cocasses, de paysages qui défilent, de baisers échangés sur un quai de gare, de voyages qui ont changé une vie... C'est le cas d'une trentaine de plumes de la littérature française, qui souhaitent intervenir, au moyen de la fiction, en soutien à la grève engagée par les cheminots. Car la lutte des cheminots n'est pas une lutte corporatiste, elle cristallise au contraire l'idéal de solidarité, concrétisé par des services publics, de tout un peuple. Avec Patrick Bard, Agnès Bihl, Laurent Binet, Geneviève Brisac, Bernard Chambaz, Didier Daeninckx, Abdelkader Djemaï, Bruno Doucey, Annie Ernaux, Pascale Fautrier, Patrick Fort, Valentine Goby, Nedim Gürsel, Hédi Kaddour, Leslie Kaplan, Jean-Marie Laclavetine, Lola Lafon, Hervé Le Corre, Sandra Lucbert, Mako, Roger Martin, Guillaume Meurice, Gérard Mordillat, François Morel, Grégoire Polet, Jean-Bernard Pouy, Patrick Raynal, Alix de Saint-André, Danièle Sallenave, Jean-Marc Salmon, Alain Serres, Shumona Sinha, Murielle Szac, Tardi, Carole Trébor et Philippe Videlier.
