Abstract

A great many of our shortcomings can be traced back to inadequate management, whether for want of foresight, inexperience, or simply a lack of appropriate training. There have been shining exceptions, it is true; but in the main, any enterprise can only be as good as its managers allow. And our record seems to speak for itself. If management is falling short of our needs, then we have to look again at the process by which managers are produced, educated, trained, and assisted to keep up with new developments. This is what we are concerned with here at this conference.
