Abstract
1980 was a critical time for John Hancock with high inflation, high interest rates, increased competition, and the desertion of policy holders seeking new investment opportunities. A new lower level (of vice presidents) task force was set up by the executive committee (also struggling to build cooperative teamwork) to come up with new strategic visions and directions. The task force has group problems. A rewritten version of an earlier case.
