This text is a bridge across what sometimes seems a divide between hard and soft OR/MS. It demonstrates that the views which are often characterized as hard and soft OR/MS are not really in opposition to one another but are addressing different types of issue.

It argues for their relevance alongside other aspects of management such as intuition, vision and leadership.
