Abstract: | Imposing Japanese strategies on American workers left this company in the dark. It reads like a bad joke: how many steps does it take to move a water cooler? If you worked at Florida Power & Light three years ago, your answer would have been: it takes seven separate steps. Sound ludicrous? Maybe, but that's exactly how a team at FP&L's Fort Myers' district office approached the situation when someone proposed moving the water cooler. Betsy Wiesendanger tells the story. |
