- Abstract
The article presents a response to the article "Building Better Bureaucracies," by Paul S. Adler. The author discusses his past experiences consulting with managers to improve human resource practices, and outlines several lessons he has learned about how to ensure that organizational systems are experienced as enabling by the employees of the organization. These lessons include creating a set of organizational values, measuring performance and providing feedback for employees, and holding managers accountable for what they produce and how they produce it.
