Worst Management Practices

One interesting point about the recession is that it has generated plenty of articles about bad management practices... right at a time where many managers are telling employees that they are lucky to have a job.

An article from Business Week placed "Forced Ranking" as number 1 on the list of "brainless and injurious" management practices. I have written about failures of forced ranking in the past, it is interesting to see that it is coming in regularly as one of the worst practices. Hopefully it is a practice whose time has come and is now disappearing from the corporate landscape.
