Experiences of a troubleshooter Making companies profitable during my working life Lloyd Rodrigo's monograph of episodes at various stages of his professional life as a Chartered Accountant makes interesting reading. One is drawn to the irresistible conclusion that he has been and perhaps still he is a competent troubleshooter on the commercial scene particularly in the context of the practice and adoption of ethical values in business. While emphasizing ethical values Lloyd gives an incisive and sometimes rare insight into an effective practice of management principles. He has perhaps excelled in the area of human relationships especially in dealing with dominant personalities and recalcitrant characters. These experiences and translations have been put into easily readable and understandable English. He constantly keeps readers interested by a well crafted flow and language for which he gives credit to his dear wife Dr. Seetha Rodrigo. Persons interested in the practice of management both in the local scene and in some countries in Africa and in England will certainly appreciate the dynamics of human relationships which Lloyd frankly describes. I think Lloyd will admit that things have changed. Some of the companies and institutions he has referred to in his monograph and hence, one must be wary of making hasty judgements. The book is recommended to be read by those concerned with management and the accountancy profession and also by those interested in human relations. - G.C.B. Wijeyesinghe **** Back **** |
