Mary P. Follett (1868-1933) brought new dimensions to the theory
and practice of management and was one of America's preeminent
thinkers about democracy and social organization. The ideas Follett
developed in the early twentieth century continue even today to
challenge thinking about business and civic concerns. This book,
the first biography of Follett, illuminates the life of this
intriguing woman and reveals how she developed her farsighted
theories about the organization of human relations. Out of twenty
years of civic work in Boston's immigrant neighborhoods, Follett
developed ideas about the group basis of democracy and the
foundations of social interaction that placed her among leading
progressive intellectuals. Later in her career, she delivered
influential lectures on business management that form the basis of
our contemporary discourse about collaborative leadership, worker
empowerment, self-managed teams, conflict resolution, the value of
inclusivity and diversity, and corporate social responsibility.
