Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Every organization runs on work it cannot see, does not pay for, and would rather not admit exists. The coordination that keeps projects from collapsing. The institutional memory that survives ten reorganizations. The quiet mediation that stops a small disagreement before it reaches the CEO. The standards work that catches the error before it becomes a lawsuit. This labor is everywhere, it holds the whole structure up, and it has almost no name. The Invisible Work argues that the invisibility is not an accident. It is the design. Modern management evolved measurement, reward, and promotion systems that function only as long as most of the real work stays uncounted. To name this work would be to price it. To price it would be to admit that the org chart runs on goodwill and unpaid overtime. So the work stays hidden, and the cost is paid by a small group of conscientious people who get neither the credit nor the raise. Drawing on more than a hundred interviews across software, healthcare, finance, education, manufacturing, and the public sector, Babu George and Harpreet Kaur build a framework rigorous enough for scholars and direct enough for anyone who has ever been the person who quietly kept things from falling apart. They borrow from cosmology to describe the organizational dark matter that accounts for most of what a company actually runs on. They borrow from biology to show the hidden network beneath the org chart. They propose phantom labor as a missing economic category, predict where algorithmic management will produce its first failures, and reframe the worker's refusal not as withdrawal but as the most valuable information an organization can receive. This book will not make you feel better. It will make you see clearly. For the worker carrying more than the record shows, for the manager who keeps losing good people without knowing why, and for anyone trying to understand what their workplace truly depends on, clarity is the first move toward freedom. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
