Abstract
Management in the English‐speaking world depends on exhortation, yet without top management's full commitment and support, productivity programmes will not work. To continue to compete on the international market there is a need to manage and utilise resources more effectively; an analysis of Japanese management, allowing that cultures do not “travel well”, suggests the need for a more people‐orientated management style; building on human potential available at all levels of the company; encouraging managers to delegate readily; building effective work teams; emphasising quality of product; providing greater job security; and developing an open information system.
