Management Responsibilities

I write for a pro-manufacturing site in the US called Manufacturing Crunch. I posted a link there recently to an article in the UK Independent from a Management Consultant blowing the whistle on consultant scams and overcharging. One of the best real consultants I know of, Bill Waddell, then wrote a piece about the responsibilities of managers and consultants to help protect jobs, and why he feels this is an important thing for them to do. It's well worth a read, and remember, it's from someone who knows more than half a dozen consultancy firms put together. You can link to it directly here.
