Managing without a Stick or a Carrot

Abstract

The key to the future of this nation is about creation — about creating the worth — about creating the wealth. It is not about marching and protesting, it is about creating more. It is highly moral for a Christian democracy to redistribute wealth but I suspect it is highly immoral to distribute what we have not even created. The greatest challenge in creating the wherewithal in the last 20 years of the 20th century in this country is the ability to get people going. It is about service, delivery, flexibility, it is about lowering absence, it is about setting people alight.
