Evan Davis asks his big name guests about their personal style of management. Does the TV image of the short-tempered, blunt-speaking boss reflect what goes on in the boardroom? PY Gerbeau, CEO of X-Leisure and the man who saved Disneyland Paris and the Millennium Dome, admits to shouting sometimes while David Roche, President of Hotels.com can't remember the last time he raised his voice. And John McLaren, investment banker turned thriller writer, recalls how different the Japanese business style is from the UK and US way of doing things. And for some extra value for money, Evan asks his guests whether discounting really does give people a better deal? Join The Bottom Line for a little light business conversation with some heavy hitting guests this week on BBC News.
