Synopsis
One critical change in how people work, argues Larry Hirschhorn, is that they are expected to bring more of themselves psychologically to the job. To facilitate this change, it is necessary to create a new culture of authority—one in which superiors acknowledge their dependence on subordinates, subordinates can challenge superiors, and both are able to show their vulnerability.

Review
A bold examination of the social and psychological dilemmas we face in the postmodern organization. Hirschhorn has a wonderful way of grounding theory in insightful and provocative vignettes. Organizational consultants and aware managers will find this book a must-read.
―John Seely Brown, Chief Scientist, Xerox Corporation; Director, Xerox PARCIn Reworking Authority, Larry Hirschhorn continues and goes beyond his important contribution in understanding and managing organizations. By skillful integration of psychodynamics, strategy, economics of the firm, and important cultural patterns, he develops new concepts related to leadership and followership in the postmodern organization.
―Chris Argyris, James Bryan Conant Professor of Education and Organizational Behavior, Graduate School of Business Administration, Harvard UniversityIn Reworking Authority, Larry Hirschhorn incisively describes the changing dynamics and difficulties of contemporary organizations. His approach to consulting with troubled groups, addressing the needs and fears of personnel at all levels in the hierarchy, is sensitive and sophisticated. This book will fascinate and inform anyone with an interest in the way organizations, or the people who work in them, function in our postmodern age.
