Development programmes for retail management: Templeton's new institute

Abstract

With increased competition and a radically changing retail environment, the quality and effectiveness of managers in retailing is assuming ever greater importance. Management development programmes play a significant part in this, not least at the new Institute of Retail Management at Templeton College, Oxford, where teaching and research programmes specifically oriented to the retail sector are being established. It claims to be the first such educational centre in Britain catering specifically to the post‐experience needs of retailers.
