| 01 | Officers And Men | 19970725 | Could the wartime spirit of unity be transferred to the workplace? Patrick Wright learns how a D-Day lieutenant brought military ideas of leadership into the management of a cider factory, and dispatched his marketing manager to the army for three months. And why was a 1949 Gregory Peck war movie considered a valuable teaching aid? |
| 02 | Keep Talking | 19970801 | How can bosses bridge the apparent gulf between them and their workers? Patrick Wright investigates the radical experiments undertaken by Wilfred Brown at the Glacier Metal Company in the 40s and 50s. Critics claimed it was more a factory for social research than a bearings manufacturer. |
| 03 | Naked Excellence | 19970808 | In the 1980s, the beleaguered boss could turn to a new source of wisdom. Sales of books by American management gurus rocketed - but were they, as cynics suggested, little more than alchemists offering soundbite solutions? And what about the argument that `management does not exist'? |
| 04 LAST | If The Suit Fits | 19970815 | Management may have become the new theology, offering possible solutions to all kinds of organizations - including the church. Patrick Wright investigates how learning to manage in the 1990s can involve a journey of personal discovery, sometimes far removed from the corridors of power. |
