Abstract
Prof Robert Dyson, initially a research mathematician and senior systems technologist at Pilkington Plc (1964-70), joined the University of Warwick, School of Industrial and Business Studies in 1970 as a lecturer. These memoirs chart his personal experiences and the development of the University over the next two decades, following a period of turbulence and student protest in the late 1960s, through a programme of renewal and development that resulted in Warwick Business School (WBS) becoming one of the leading business schools of Europe.
Prof Dyson had a crucial role in this transformation as Chairman of WBS 1978-81 and later as a member of the senior management team that implemented the changes in the mid and late 1980's. He was later appointed Dean of WBS (1998-2000) and now holds the position of Emeritus Professor in the Operational Research & Management Sciences Group.
