Abstract
Taken from an inaugural address at the University of St Andrews, Scotland. Discusses postmodernism, particularly regarding Japanese influences in this sphere but also looks at the overview of organizational characteristics among other nations, particularly the US. Looks also at the changes which must happen regarding the labour market and for flexibility amongst workers and management to ensure future prosperity. Goes on to show that postmodernism is the improved model over modernist theories.Keywords
