Culture change at McVitie's (UK): a two part study

Article Abstract:

McVitie's is conducting a programme entitled 'The Way Forward', with a view to changing its management style and enabling workers to make a contribution to decision making. The company wanted its management to be more supportive, to determine how managers could give staff more power, and to set up teams. Through the programme it learned that it was difficult for both staff and managers to make changes and that this could not happen quickly. Some of the company's seven sites have accepted the new culture, but others are still working on it.
