Part three: Summary
A creative thinker and innovator in
practice
In his autobiography, Long After Sixty (1975), Lord Roy
Thompson of Fleet wrote:
'' in my office I have always made myself accessible;
I have always INSISTED upon this, to the extent Often of
not allowing my staff, or of not waiting for them, to vet
strangers who Came to see me before permitting them
to come into my office , It is the surprising things that have
sprung from this, the surprising things I have learned.
I am always curious, always hopeful. I still Often duck
out of an office meeting to see what some visitor looks
like and to find out what he wants. Likewise, I take quite
a few telephone calls if my secretary happens to be busy
or out of the room for the moment; I have of toll the
switchboard that if there is not one of my personal staff
to answer a call, to put it straight through to me. I do not
want any information or opportunity to go elsewhere
Just because no-one could take a call. I try to make friends wherever I go and it is my fond
belief that I usually succeed. The way I look at it, everyone
has an idea and one in a dozen may be a good idea. If
you have to talk to a dozen people to get one good idea,
even just the glimmering of an idea, that is not Wasteful
work. People are continually passing things onto me,
Because I have given them to believe that I will be interested.
Sometimes, usually when it is least expected,
something comes up that is touched with gold. ''
