Greg Daniels: He Knows Where You Work
Wednesday, August 1st, 2007Inc.com interviews The Office Executive Producer Greg Daniels:
Greg Daniels is to fun what Bono is to money: He has a lot of it and spends his days contemplating those who have none. Daniels created the American version of The Office, a sitcom about a paper company where the tin-eared boss mistakes insults for banter and tries employees’ patience with cringe-inducing entertainments. As executive producer and a writer for the NBC program, Daniels is essentially boss of a show about the Dante’s Inferno of workplaces.

Office Babies. Love. It.

3 | Samuel L. Chang Wed. Aug. 1, 2007 at 12:42pmI think the interviewer was really right-on when he described Michael Scott as mistaking insults for banter and entertainment for leadership. As an educator, though, I was pretty disheartened when Greg Daniels compared school with The Office. He’s probably right, but that was tough for me to read!
