Professor Ian McCarthy on Workplace Bullshit

Why is there so much management bullshit used in the workplace? On this episode, I speak with Professor Ian McCarthy who is the W.J. VanDusen Associate Professor of Innovation and Operations Management at the SFU Beedie School of Business. Ian recently co-authored a piece of research entitled "Confronting indifference toward truth: Dealing with workplace bullshit" and on the podcast, I talk to him about the genesis of the idea and the research findings. And he introduces the CRAP framework that he and his co-authors developed to help us all identify and respond to the challenges of Workplace Bullshit. We also briefly touch on Ian's other research into Social Media and Deep Fakes.To read a copy of the research click here: https://lnkd.in/gVq2KuvYou can also support the work being undertaken by Ian and his colleagues by completing the Workplace Bullshit survey here: https://sfulsg.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_1XGmd6FDZfjwjzfFor more on Ian visit his LinkedIn profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ianmccarthy1/ or his faculty page: https://beedie.sfu.ca/profiles/IanMcCarthy
