Top recommended articles:

This is a summary of the best articels that I came across over the past week:

The “Montessori approach” to management (at eg Google) and its criticism by the Economist

Interesting thoughts on “life after e-mail”; an account of how a company manages without email by Scott Berkun on Fast Company

Absolutely fantastic article: Why Gen Y (and maybe all others) are unhappy

On networking: don’t approach it in a “shoving-a-flier-under-all-the-windshields-in-a-parking-lot” manner by Inc.

Strategic Quitting: Great and entertaining 12 minute TED talk on the power of letting go what you’re not good at, by Paul Rulkens

Have a great start into the week!
