EGOnomics (2016)

Overview

Many people have negative opinions about their managers. A survey by the Geva Institute in Munich found that 88% of German workers have issues with their superiors, with 20% admitting to hating them. Consequently, nearly 70% find little pleasure in their work, 18% have withdrawn, and only 12% are motivated. The film explores these issues by critiquing neoliberalism, highlighting its flaws in promoting free market expansion and endless growth, even if harmful. It features interviews with scientists, psychologists, and CEOs like Paul Bulcke from Nestlé.
