Not earlier than 2012, I can think of Walmart, Tesco and some few in the US and UK between 1995 - 2005, but known from Australia. If you could certainly provide media links and articles to a company from Australia, I could certainly use that.
I would use theories from Mc Gregor (Theory X and Y), Maslow (Hierarchy of needs), F.W Taylor, Fayol, Weber and Follet. Might talk passingly on the Gant chart.
Please let me know how many words are needed and how soon this is needed.
Regards,
Arnold.
