Abstract

Little more than a decade ago businesses enjoyed the relative luxury of continuing expansion, soft markets, comfortable margins, reasonable overheads and good returns. In those days management was akin to driving an automatic car — it wasn't really a matter of concentrating on the vehicle as much as it was simply steering gently along an unobstructed course.
