As a consultant in my prior career, I could tell how good company morale was at my clients' offices by the number of Dilbert cartoons posted in cubicles. More Dilberts almost always meant poor morale. As a social phenomenon, Dilbert has gained a loyal following of readers who can personally relate to Scott Adams' insights. So I thought CIMBA management students would be interested in Dilbert's world. They weren't.
This semester CIMBA Intro to Management students showed an overwhelming interest in "The Office." The Office was the subject of (at least) five entertaining student choice presentations toward the end of the semester. Even though students made their presentations on the Wednesday afternoon before Thanksgiving travel weekend (along with final exams the next), CIMBAns put their best efforts forth. Interestingly, many of you asserted that Michael Scott is a brilliant manager (despite some foibles and follies). Did you learn that in class?
