Follett is my hero!

[Saifuddin Madadha · Rating 5 out of 5]

Brilliant author, and brilliant stuff to read about in management and business administration.
If we put more emphasis on the author's work, then new bodies of enlightenment and insights shall emerge to the world, academically, philosophically and solving problems we face up to-date in our current world.
