The Roaming Russian Dolls

Jan Ch. Karlsson

Chapter 33 in Organizational Misbehaviour in the Workplace, 2012, pp 92-93 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The web design department of an international IT firm was going to be a fun workplace — that is what management had decided. The customers were going to be really impressed by the unconventional and creative style of the department. This would be noticeable in the architectural layout; for example, the elliptical corridor that divided up the premises diagonally and that was lit by blue lighting. There was also a particularly fun room, furnished like a children’s playroom. The whole office was strewn with toys, games, sculptures and even a fully equipped billiard table. The most fun, impressive and creative thing, however, was that management had obtained a set of very expensive human-sized Russian dolls to ornament the workplace.
