Abstract
In some ways the question of Management Development alone can be thought of as a misnomer even in contemporary industrial society, since in most respects business is concerned not just with the development of a few managers but with the many. Certainly for the future Human Resource Development probably better describes what the business world is about in this regard than simply management development. Having said that, however, there is an element of uniqueness attached to manager development in the future which separates it from its current activities of developing its human resources in order to make the maximum use of their contribution and capacity. It is this unique element which is the need and objective of developing some people — call them success‐orientated managers — who will be sought to exercise, in the very best sense of the word, the finest qualities of leadership in the work environment. This will bring real achievement to organisations and reverse the trend away from the bureaucratic, self‐perpetuating and self‐protecting managers we know so well today.
