متن يادداشت
"Myth typically brings to mind something not true, a false belief or erroneous idea - or else tales of the spiritual domain. Mythical Inspirations for Organizational Realities looks at myths as part of our everyday organizational lives, and reflects on uses of mythology as allegories or metaphors where the plot or theme lies in the tales' focus. The mythical narratives presented in this volume serve as metaphors of an organizational issue that can take inspiration from or be better understood through the myth to reveal an archetypal dimension of organizing and organizations."--Jacket.
