MIT Sloan Management Review Article on Can We End the Crisis of Agency?

Do you feel more or less in control of the world than you did five years ago?

This is a question I have been discussing with researchers, authors, executives, and others I encounter in my life as editor of MIT Sloan Management Review. You will not be surprised that the majority answer “less,” usually without hesitation and often quite adamantly.

I set the time span of five years for the question so it is not directly tied to the Trump presidency or Brexit, although it’s hard to imagine those developments are not central in many people’s answers.
