The most probable assumption is that no currently working 'business theory' will be valid 10 years hence.

Working with people is difficult, but not impossible.

People in any organization, including bureaucrats and politicians, are always attached to the obsolete; the obsolescent; the things that should have worked but didn't; the things that once were productive and no longer are.

Organizations are no longer built on force, but on trust.

Nothing is less productive than to make more efficient what should not be done at all.

Do not believe that it is very much of an advance to do the unnecessary three times as fast.

Business, that's easily defined - it's other people's money.
