This paper provides a preliminary opportunity to report the findings of an empirical research study. The work details new management strategies, different methods of organisation, and changing manufacturing systems in a particular industry sector. Further, it postulates that the changes witnessed in strategic direction and operational emphasis are directly related to a particular macro‐environmental influence in the form of a sociological transition. It is argued that particular socio‐cultural and anthropological changes may well form a crucial determinant for this industry in promoting its observed responses.

I was editor of the City Press weekly newspaper from 1966 to 1975. From 1970 I also produced for BBC sound radio a daily report on the city. For 5 years I did daily pieces for BBC Radio London; and for two years in addition I did a spot on the Stock Exchange and the financial news of the day for the ‘P.M.’ programme at 5.50. On top of this, at City Press we briefed both BBC Radio London and ‘The World at One’ on any exciting City events which took place in the morning, and often broadcast about them.
