Ruthlessness

Evan Davis and his executive panel swap ideas on the pros and cons of ruthlessness as a management style. They also discuss investing and selling in deprived areas.

The view from the top of business. Presented by Evan Davis, The Bottom Line cuts through confusion, statistics and spin to present a clearer view of the business world, through discussion with people running leading and emerging companies. The programme is broadcast first on 主播大秀 Radio 4 and later on 主播大秀 World Service Radio, 主播大秀 World News TV and 主播大秀 News Channel TV.

It's tough at the top, but when is it right to be tough at the top? Evan's executive panel debate the pros and cons of ruthlessness as a management style. They also talk about investing and selling in deprived areas - places capitalism often overlooks.

Joining Evan are Jasmine Montgomery, founder of Seven Brands; Michele Giddens, co-founder of Bridges Ventures; Dido Harding, chief executive of Talk Talk Group.

Producer: Ben Crighton
Editor: Richard Vadon.
