    Ghoshal’s Ghost: Financialization and the End of Management Theory
    with Gregory A. Daneke and Alexander Sager
    Philosophy of Management 14 (1): 29-45. 2015.
    Sumantra Ghoshal’s condemnation of “bad management theories” that were “destroying good management practices” has not lost any of its salience, after a decade. Management theories anchored in agency theory (and neo-classical economics generally) continue to abet the financialization of society and undermine the functioning of business. An alternative approach (drawn from a more classic institutional, new ecological, and refocused ethical approaches) is reviewed.
