This annual lecture marks the contribution of Teddy Chester, who was the first professor of social administration at The University of Manchester. From his appointment in the early 1950s to his retirement in the 1970s, he was an influential pioneer in management development, using evidence and research with policy makers, and working with clinical leaders. He was involved in founding and leading the NHS Graduate Training Scheme, and in founding Manchester Business School.
