Abstract
Argues that the survival and success of organizations today depends not only on devolving responsibility to individual employees, but also on the ability of managers to change their role accordingly in order to guide and support these individuals. Advocates the abandonment of the traditional command and control style of management in favour of a “coaching” approach, and outlines some principles of good coaching.
