Scamapalooza 62: Corporate Bullshit with Ian McCarthy

Have you ever had to deal with corporate bullshit? Had your projects “put on the back burner”? Or had your job “right-sized”? Also, what the hell is “disruption?” Ian McCarthy is the Professor of Innovation and Operations Management at Simon Fraser University. His paper Confronting indifference toward Truth: Dealing with workplace bullshit introduced the C.R.A.P Framework, a system for organisations to reduce the amount of bullshit in the workplace. In this episode, I talk to Ian about how organisations deal with the problem of B.S. and what, if anything, workers can do to make their lives less difficult.
