Description

Explore the complex world of organizational behavior with Hidden Attractions of Administration: The Peculiar Appeal of Meetings and Documents. Part of the Routledge Studies in the Sociology of Work, Professions and Organisations, this book offers a deep look into why administrative tasks continue to grow in modern working life. Instead of viewing administrative expansion as something forced only by management, the authors present a new perspective. They argue that these activities are often driven from within the workforce itself. By examining people-processing organizations-such as those serving clients, patients, or students-this text uncovers the specific reasons why individuals find certain administrative tasks appealing, even when they are frequently criticized. This academic work provides essential insights for those studying the sociology of work and organizational dynamics. It moves beyond simple complaints about paperwork to explain the inner motivations that sustain administrative culture in professional settings.
