Caught by the winter ice, Amundsen did what the earlier Franlin's crew had been unable or unwilling to do; he turned to the native Inuit to learn their ancient skills of Artic survival. The secrets they taught him - seal hunting, building igloos, and handling dog teams - not only ensured the success of his voyage, but paved the way for his conquest of the South Pole in 1912.

pertinent to performance measurement are introduced, together with some suggestions for theories that deserve consideration in future work. This approach is consistent with that of Pfeffer (1997) although because he appears to focus primarily on survival or competitive success as the main definitions of ‘ good’ performance his choice of major theories is necessarily different (apart from structural contingency). As the aim of the paper is to identify agenda items for research, the next section provides

When a word has considerable currency despite the subjective twist, it may be expected, like the pronouns 'I' and 'you', to have a valuable social function of some exceptional sort.
