Sometimes we offer up an opinion about management or the economy or a government policy and the feedback is robust and thoughtful, but not particularly contentious. And then there are the times when we offer up an opinion and all hell breaks loose.
Not surprisingly, many of our controversial opinions have concerned events in the news, especially ones of a political nature. But some of our “hottest” topics have dealt with basic managerial practices, like how to handle a onetime star who is underperforming and, much to our surprise, the notion of what constitutes bureaucratic behavior.
This section features some of our opinions that seemed to touch a real nerve, plus a sampling of the responses that came back at us, both good and bad.
We invite you to add your own voice to the debate.
