Abstract
This chapter reflects upon the body of accumulated knowledge gathered in the previous chapters by identifying the key skills and sensitivities that good management teams within modern manufacturing companies should possess. Given the complexities and variability of modern manufacturing production lines and markets, the management teams must ensure they act in a facilitative manner, that is, to be able to intelligently tap into and act upon cultural understanding to unleash the creative forces and eagerness of learning embedded in the organization. Are these insights adequately embedded in modern industrial policies?
