Abstract

The author was appointed Chief Executive of a traditional insurance company with the task of waking the organisation from its lethargy and helping it to grow. It proved difficult to overcome corporate inertia. Management style and behaviour needed radical alteration and a programme called Corporate Development and Training was adopted. Its gradual acceptance and success in tapping the company's energies and talents are described.
