This book, centred on the concept of ‘the exceptional manager’, represents
the start of this journey. It would be wrong (as well as diminishing of
the effort and ambition involved) to imply that even at this stage the
journey has not been challenging and sometimes controversial. It has
had its saddening aspects, too, most obviously the early loss of Sumantra
Ghoshal. As those who knew him would have expected, Sumantra had
already proved to be one of the most stimulating and forceful participants
in the venture; he was also one of the most committed to its ambitious
aims.We should also note the debt we owe to the groundwork carried out
by AIM’s founding director, Professor Anne Huff, in appointing and knitting
together the fellows as a functioning and effective team.
