It is a portrait of the workplace undergoing revolutionary change. It is clear from this research that British managers are reassessing their relationship both with work and home in an attempt to find a better balance between the two. They are also increasingly seeing themselves as the masters of their own destiny, with old loyalties being replaced by a new spirit of independence in an increasingly competitive commercial world. The Quality of Working Life 2000 Survey of Managers' Changing Experiences represents the responses of 1,516 members of the Institute of Management. The sample was made up of chairmen, chief executives, managing directors, directors, senior managers, middle managers and junior managers.
Case studies are available if required.
