Management crisis not credit crunch

If you watch one video this weekend, watch Henry Mintzberg on the “management crisis”.  He is not the only management guru talking about the management crisis – Hamel is too.  I was glad to see Mintzberg challenge the trite distinction between management and leadership.   I’ve long held we do too little to develop the organizational acumen of young people – a point amply made by R. Katz.

Do Mintzberg’s comments apply to firms in the UK?  What are the issues here?

Hat-tip to management futurist, Jon Husband, of Wirearchy.
