Global Organization Design Society presents...


To celebrate the 75th birthday of Elliott Jaques in 1992, a Festschrift was created to gather together the many contributed manuscripts written by Jaques' global academic/practitioner colleagues and associates, and publish them in his honour.

Your GO Society is pleased to present selected readings (each shared by the generous permission of the respective author(s) or their estate(s)) from this unique collection.

In some instances, the contributor has subsequently updated his/her manuscript, and we are privileged to provide the International GO community with their most recent revision.


Explore the authorized manuscripts selected from the "Festschrift for Elliott Jaques (1992)"
below.   These selected articles are listed by the alphabetical order of the lead contributing author. (eg. Burke, Cang, ...Phillips, Rossan, Stamp)

All works are downloadable in Adobe PDF (unless otherwise indicated.)
