    Interesting reading… no education to be found, December 19, 2011

    I read this book many years ago, while employed at AAM. Found it to be very Disappointing & lacked the passion I was hoping to learn from it. The book starts out talking about stories & how he asked every employee ” How can I help you do your job? What is it you need?” The second half of the book talks in management/manufacturing lingo. Must be why it’s a MUST-HAVE for Purdue students. As it turns out Mr. Dauch broke the union, saved labor cost, raised prices of products & made Billions. Let it be known, all business’s who do business with AAM are most often owned my a Dauch family-friend or colleague. True americanism at its finest. I (and many former employees) will never buy anything with a AAM product installed in it. By the way, after giving up on this book, I sold it to the first person who bid on it. 1 STAR is simply too much.
