Evan Davis and his guests discuss the essence of good leadership and dematerialisation.

Evan Davis and his executive panel debate what good leadership consists of. They also swap thoughts on dematerialisation - surviving on 20 per cent less of everything.

The view from the top of business. Presented by Evan Davis, The Bottom Line cuts through confusion, statistics and spin to present a clearer view of the business world, through discussion with people running leading and emerging companies. The programme is broadcast first on BBC Radio 4 and later on BBC World Service Radio, BBC World News TV and BBC News Channel TV.
