Strategic manufacturing conference brochure featuring Charles Handy presentation on paradoxes and their resolutions. A synopsis for Charles Handy's talk on his book, The Empty Raincoat, appears on page 2 of the document. Handy describes the empty raincoat as a symbol of paradox wherein, if economic progress brings about more anonymity and impersonal workers and working lives, then progress is an empty promise. Among other related topics, the text indicates that Handy's talk will offer some resolutions to this paradox, and specifies that each delegate to the conference will receive a copy of Handy's book.
