Dilbert Creator Scott Adams Dies at 68, Remembered for Workplace Satire

Scott Adams, creator of the satirical comic strip Dilbert, has died at age 68. Dilbert, which depicted a cubicle-bound corporate victim, gained popularity in the 1990s for its humor about workplace incompetence and management fads. Adams's minimalist style and cynical observations offered critiques of corporate culture, often overlooked by executives who treated the strip as a mascot rather than a reflection of reality. His work satirized bureaucratic labyrinths and management trends prevalent in the late 20th century.
