AB  - Outlines a research project being carried out within the East Midlands,
which is examining change in management ideas owing to the presence of a
large Japanese car manufacturer. If management ideas are found to
alter, there will eventually follow the implementation of new ideas in
both production practices and employment practices. This will make
itself felt throughout the region. Change will come in the
implementation of new ideas and techniques, some of which are
successful, others not. What the research will investigate is how senior
managers′ ideas and strategies develop and change over time as a direct
result of Toyota′s presence. Using well‐established techniques the
study will track changes by conducting surveys and in‐depth interviews.
Both qualitative and quantitative data will be used to map the flow of
changed practices through the business network.
