Harvard Business Publishing reviews

There is almost no racial diversity at HBP and there also seems to be a lack of diversity in worldview and upbringing. This is something they really need to work on to be competitive and to innovate outside the "ivory tower." Managers talk-the-talk but do not walk-the-walk--relying instead on their teams to do everything and then taking credit for the work. Pretty ironic considering the mission is "to improve the practice of management." Could take some tips from their own content. Management is completely in love with themselves and hold themselves in high regard--need to work on humility in a big way. Purport to be a technology company but the investments don't support that vision.

How ironic that an organization that exists to provide world class thought leadership is so poorly managed. Senior management is sadly removed from day to day challenges of their teams. Reliance on long-term contract workers and lack of admininstrative support hinders productivity. Little opportunity for growth and development. HR exists soley to hire and fire employees. Clubby senior management team, favoritism culture, and relentless pressure to meet short-term financial goals destructive to the mission of HBR and employee morale.
