MANAGEMENT
Starting Over In Warsaw
</hdr><body>
<p> For retired U.S. executives who are looking for a second
calling, opportunity is knocking in Poland. This week at the
new Marriott Hotel in Warsaw, Commerce Secretary Robert
Mosbacher plans to announce a program organized by U.S.
executives to advise Polish managers on how to think like
American entrepreneurs and help revive their ailing national
economy.
</p>
<p> The impetus for the tutoring scheme came from Donald Davis,
chairman of Stanley Works, the Connecticut-based toolmaker. In
a visit to Poland in the early 1980s, says he, "I was
overwhelmed by the lack of management know-how." Davis began
organizing the program almost two years ago with the help of the
International Executive Service Corps, which sends retired
managers to help businesses in developing countries. Davis hopes
to organize ten visiting-manager projects this year and as many
as 50 in 1990.
