Tales from the workplace

Zogby Poll:...Finds One in Four Working Americans Describe their Employer as a "Dictatorship"

"One out of every four working Americans (25%) describes their workplace as a dictatorship, while just 34% of bosses in the American workplace react well to valid criticism, according to a new Workplace Democracy Association/Zogby Interactive survey."

Overconfident CEOs

"they find that CEOs appear to overly attribute their role in successful deals, leading to more deals even though these subsequent deals are value destructive.

They also find evidence that CEOs alter their stock holdings prior to deals in a pattern consistent with overconfidence in the outcome of these subsequent deals. "

Thanks to Progressive Review where I found these.
