In this essential work, Angelika Kutz examines how paradoxical double-bind communication affects employees and organizations. The aim is to make transparent the self-esteem destructive machinery and the health-promoting effects of the toxic communication pattern of double binds. From the research findings, the author derives the following questions: Are burnout and organizational burnout truly a double-bind-induced disturbance of work engagement and work relationships? Does double bind and the resulting relational disturbance fuel the increasing loss of values and thus the self-destruction of the global double-bind society?.
