I had a really pleasant surprise last week when this email hit my inbox:
Dear Patrick Goh,
I’m delighted to inform you that your article published in Voluntary Sector Review was one of the Journal’s top five most read articles published in 2017. As such we will be making it free to access for the month of February and marketing it on our website (http://policypress.co.uk/journals/free) and on the Voluntary Sector Review twitter feed.
As the email didn’t ask me to fill in my personal information, I’m fairly certain it’s not spam. :)-
My reward? It’s being featured as a free download for the month of February 2018… so get it while you can.
#Don’t you wish your boy / girl friend was hot like me? JK! 
The article’s called Systemic practice and workplace as community: alternatives to managerialism

I am a ‘People Practitioner’ who has, over the years, been swept up by the tidal wave of change that has seen my profession go from being called Manpower Management to Personnel Management to Human Resource Management, and now back, well sort of… to Systemic People Management. I came up with the last phrase because I find myself increasingly uncomfortable with working within the confines of the ubiquitous neo-liberal approach to categorising and organising people. I believe that people are people, not merely assets, human capital or resources. While we do find fulfilment from PRODUCTivity, we are ultimately human beings, not human doings. I would like to transcend who we have become and becoming in a marketized, monetarised world and leave the corporatist worldview that reminds me so much of the allegory of Plato’s Cave.
I love God, my family, playing guitar, following Arsenal, travelling and taking and editing photos. This website is a celebration of all these things and more.
