Abstract

Management is classically defined as taking responsibility. In the era of late neoliberalism, the crisis in management leads one to understand that this fundamental goal is not being achieved by mainstream management. Humanizing management is necessary to restore the balance of managed systems. This article specifically proposes a historiographical reflection and a dialogue between management and art as viable – and efficient – ways to accomplish this mission. Simultaneously, it offers hope for addressing the crisis in the humanities (as discussed by Lech Witkowski), by moving closer to concrete actions in favor of the Other. In this way, management and the humanities together can tackle the challenges of complex modernity and generate positive synergistic effects by means of taking responsibility for the future.
