In his books...
In Richard's books, he discusses the ways in which changes in the global economy and technologies will affect the development of successful corporate strategies over the coming decade. He explores the world around us and the issues people face as workers, citizens, and consumers. He discusses the battle between career and family and other issues such as achieving success in a wireless world, new corporations, cynical consumers, and the demographics of our world.
He is author of twenty academic books, many of which discuss aspects of the entrepreneurial organisation, managing creativity, motivational leadership, organisational re-structuring and leveraging corporate intelligence. In addition, he is a frequent contributor of articles to national newspapers, professional magazines, as well as to radio and television programmes. He writes regular columns for Business Voice (the official monthly publication of the CBI), the Observer and Winning Business. He has also been commissioned to write policy focused official reports for Government and other statutory bodies and these include Fit and Fifty (All Party committee of MPs), Europe in 2010 (EU), and Regional Futures (National Housing Federation).
Business Interests
He should not only be seen as an academic. In the 1980's he set up a media company, which, after going public, is now part of the Capital Group in the United Kingdom. In 1999, he and two others established a B2B business, which provides on-line learning materials for corporate management development programmes. Richard has recently been voted by Personnel Today as one of the Top Ten most influential people in Britain on personnel/human resource management. According to FMX, ‘Scase has filled the void left by Charles Handy’.
