Nobody owes us a living

Abstract

Management today is both an art and a science, and, also a highly professional business. The only prescription for a successful Britain, as with a successful company, is for industry to make and sell what the customer wants. To satisfy the needs of the customer, at a profit, is the nearest to a guarantee of employment. There is no escaping that eternal truth, and there is no escape from reality itself; no escape by refusing to face facts; no escape by refusing to accept responsibility.
