Images of Organization by Garth Morgan.

I went in expecting a somewhat fluffy business book, but it is nothing of the sort. Every page is full of interesting anecdotes, analogies, and insights around not just corporate life, but life in general.

It was way more thorough and academic than I expected, very highly recommend it.

Having worked more than 15 years in the industry and having completed several OB courses during my MBA, I cannot point to a better resource than this book that helps understand what actually drives organizations and how they function.
