Chapter 8 in Introducing Organizational Behaviour, 1982, pp 136-159 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Probably the most used and abused adjective which managers use about meetings with groups of colleagues at work is ‘bloody’: I’ve had one hell of a day — one bloody meeting after another. If only we could cut down the number of bloody meetings we have, I might be able to get some work done.
