ABSTRACT
I started with Packard Electric on January 19, 1971, on a bitterly cold day. If the weather had been like this during my Packard interview I might very well have ended up in Dallas building homes, instead of in Warren, Ohio, building wiring harnesses. Who knows how that might have worked out. But, for one thing, I wouldn’t be writing this book, which I believe can help manufacturing companies, especially U.S. companies, become more competitive in this world economy.
