The fiends of the infernal Management Destruction Unit (MDU) failed, as described in The 10 Commandments of Management, to prevent Andrew Buckden becoming Chief Executive of the United Group and turning it into the market leader in the garden gnome sector. His aim is to become one of the Great and the Good, and he is hoping for the reward of a knighthood.
But the fiendish forces are once again at work, and Senior Tempter Barripper and his nephew Relubbus are hell-bent on Andrew's damnation. This new series of devilishly funny letters charts their methods of enticing him to commit each of the Seven Deadly Sins of Management -- from Clubbability via Incompetence to the ultimate sin of Corruption.
This witty, thought-provoking fable lays bare the evils and temptations of modern corporate life, and shows how its leaders are consigned to the pit prepared for managerial wrongdoers.
