I just finished reading Robert Townsend's book "Up the Organization: How to Stop the Corporation from Stifling People and Strangling Profits"

He falls into the Theory Y camp, which I know as Servant Leadership. It's considered a classic management book, and I can see why. He really was a radical. When you read it (and you should), remember that it's a product of it's time and allow for the language.
