Krátky popis
There is an entrenched relationship between the consulting industry
and the way business and government are managed today which must
change.Mariana Mazzucato and Rosie Collington show that our
economies' reliance on companies such as McKinsey, Boston
Consulting Group, Bain &,amp, Company, PwC, Deloitte, KPMG and
EY stunts innovation, obfuscates corporate and political
accountability and impedes our collective mission of halting
climate breakdown.The 'Big Con' describes the confidence trick the
consulting industry performs in contracts with hollowed-out and
risk-averse governments and shareholder value-maximizing firms. It
grew from the 1980s and 1990s in the wake of reforms by both the
neoliberal right and Third Way progressives, and it thrives on the
ills of modern capitalism, from financialization and privatization
to the climate crisis. It is possible because of the unique power
that big consultancies wield through extensive contracts and
networks - as advisors, legitimators and outsourcers - and the
illusion that they are objective sources of expertise and
capacity.To make matters worse, our best and brightest graduates
are often redirected away from public service into consulting. In
all these ways, the Big Con weakens our businesses, infantilizes
our governments and warps our economies.Mazzucato and Collington
expertly debunk the myth that consultancies always add value to the
economy. With a wealth of original research, they argue brilliantly
for investment and collective intelligence within all organizations
and communities, and for a new system in which public and private
sectors work innovatively for the common good.We must recalibrate
the role of consultants and rebuild economies and governments that
are fit for purpose.
