What can I contribute?

INDIVIDUAL SPECIALISTS IN CONSULTANCY WORK AND THE publication of their theories and observations have made the most significant contribution to modern management prac‐tice. With effective communication in mind it has not been surprising that some have resorted to film (or been encouraged to do so by film sponsors and producers) to spread their message further. Unfortunately many of the results have been lamentable: the expert delivering a series of lectures recorded pedantically and unimaginatively on film without even the relief of actual or dramatised illus‐tration. Whatever limited value such productions have is confined to providing a visual and aural record of some expert (and occasionally a notable pioneer) in management practice. Their value for management training seems practically nil.
