Myself and Other More Important Matters

查尔斯•汉迪（Charles Handy，台湾称为韩第），1932年出生于爱尔兰，是欧洲最伟大的管理思想大师。英国《金融时报》称他是欧洲屈指可数的“管理哲学家”，并把他评为仅次于彼得•德鲁克的管理大师。如果说德鲁克是“现代管理学之父”，那么查尔斯•汉迪就是当之无愧的“管理哲学之父”。他在英国上完大学后，在东南亚和伦敦的壳牌公司工作，并担任高级管理人员。后进入美国麻省理工学院斯隆管理学院学习，开始对组织管理及其运作原理产生了兴趣。后来他返回英国创办了英国首家管理研究生院——伦敦商学院，并成为该学院的全职教授。他以“组织与个人的关系”、 “未来工作形态”的新观念而闻名于世，成为继彼得•德鲁克之后在世界上拥有读者最多的管理学权威。汉迪头上的光环数不胜数： “本世纪最具创见的组织行为大师” “天才的思想者” “管理界的预言家” “新秩序的预言家” “社会哲学家” “艺术家类型的管理大师”

The author of The Age of Unreason, The Empty Raincoat, and The Elephant and the Flea, shares more of his best-selling brand of wisdom concerning the big choices in life.

In Charles Handy’s most ambitious book yet, the well-known business guru draws on the lessons of his own life to help us map out the main stages of our lives, and shows us how to navigate through the tough decisions we have to make at every phase. He gives us his personal thoughts on life’s big questions and turning points, mining his own experience to tell us what he’s learned along the way.

From lessons his father taught him at the Vicarage in Kildare where he grew up, to what he learned in Borneo in his days working for Royal Dutch Shell, and later, in America where corporate scandals have shaken our understanding of what is ethical and what is acceptable in business, and finally in Italy, where on a whim he decided to buy and fix up an old house in Tuscany.

Throughout the book, he asks us to look at what we value — is it money? Family? Time? What is the role of work in our life? What do we find fulfilling? As our working lives blend ever more into the rest of who we are, Charles Handy has emerged as an invaluable social thinker. It is hard to imagine a better or wiser guide to life’s big questions.

读后感

“爱是对既存问题唯一健全而合理的答案”——艾瑞克.弗洛姆（Erich Fromm） 在和人提起德鲁克的时候，我脑海里忍不住会想起金庸先生笔下的张无忌，这两个人在我看来有着一个极大的相似之处——精彩非凡的人生经历。张三丰说张无忌二十年的生活比他一百年还精彩，而德鲁克，任...
