10: Anarchism, Management and Social Change with Professor Martin Parker

Edgy ideas are a speciality from my guest Martin Parker.  As
Professor of Organization Studies at Bristol University, Martin
challenges mainstream ideas about how we think about
organisations, leadership and management.  His recent books
‘Shut down the Business school’ and 'Anarchism, Organization and
Management' are discussed in this vibrant conversation. Martin
draws on his sociology, anthropology and cultural studies
training to inform his thinking.  Martin and Simon discuss
how anarchism and social movements can help inform the radical
rethink that is urgently needed if we are to #buildbackbetter
after Covid19.     

His latest book title is 'Life after COVID19',  other
publications focus on utopianism, conspiracy theory, business
ethics, pirates and outlaws and other alternative
organizations.  Martin is the lead for the Inclusive Economy
Initiative in Bristol.
