978-1-85575-804-9 (ISBN)
In Olympus Inc., Bernie Neville and Tim Dalmau use the ancient Greek Gods to explores the values, practices and beliefs that underpin businesses, schools, corporations and the like, and through this they illuminate the complex forces and currents that are at work in modern organizations.They demonstrate that autocratic Zeus, uber-efficient Apollo, the slippery trickster Hermes in fact, all the gods of the Greek pantheon - are alive and thriving in our workplaces, clubs and institutions.By combining ancient myth with archetypal psychology, Neville and Dalmau deliver an approach to the complex issues of organizational change. Their approach is creative and engaging, but also down-to-earth and practical.Olympus Inc. includes a discussion of the DNAI (Dalmau-Neville Archetypology Indicator), a powerful and easily applicable tool that distills the theory, or archetypal psychology, in ways that enable organizations to see themselves not only as they are... but as they want to be.
Tim Dalmau is regarded as one of Australia's foremost management consultants. He has consulted for private and public institutions all over the world for more than 25 years. He is the author or co-author of an extensive range of publications on action research, management and organizational change. Bernie Neville is Associate Professor of Education at La Trobe University.

Neville's 'Educating Psyche', a companion volume to 'Olympus Inc.', has received extensive praise from educators and critics.
