What does the year ahead hold for managers? That's the question Wayne explores in the Working Week this week as he talks to Jo Causon from the UK-based Chartered Management Institute - the only chartered professional body in the country dedicated to management and leadership.

Amid economic uncertainty and with fear of rising business costs, inflation and household debt, Jo argues that managers need to be more empowering – encouraging everybody in the organization to contribute – which means being willing to open their minds and innovate.

The intro music to the Working Week is "The Warrior" by The EMP Project, used with permission of Blue Canoe Records.
