How the partnership between Ford and the UAW, forged through more
than fifty pivotal events, transformed their capacity to combine
good jobs with high performance. In 2009, the Ford Motor Company
was the only one of the Big Three automakers not to take the
federal bailout package. How did Ford remain standing when its
competitors were brought to their knees? It was a gutsy decision,
but it didn't happen in isolation. The United Auto Workers joined
with Ford to make this possible-not only in 2009, but in a series
of more than fifty pivotal events during three decades that add up
to a transformation that simultaneously values work and delivers
results. The pivotal events-some planned and some unplanned; some
at the facility level and some at the enterprise level -were not
all successful. All had the potential, however, to further the
transformation, and all provide insight into how large-scale system
change really happens. The authors-each with years of experience
with Ford, the UAW, and the industry-provide an unprecedented
inside look at how core operating assumptions are shifted and at
the emergence of integrated operating systems for quality, safety,
and other aspects of the enterprise. It is a transformation built
on a foundation of dignity and mutual respect, guided by a vision
of combining good jobs with high performance.
