  • Case 8 HARLEY-DAVIDSON, INC., JANUARY 20011
    Case 8 HARLEY-DAVIDSON, INC., JANUARY 20011 You’ve shown us how to be the best. You’ve been leaders in new technology. You’ve stuck by the basic American values of hard work and fair play...Most of all, you’ve worked smarter, you’ve worked better, and you’ve worked together...as you’ve shown again, America is someplace special. We’re on the road to unprecedented prosperity...and we’ll get there on a Harley. President Ronald Reagan, speech at Harley-Davidson plant, York, Pennsylvania, May 6, 1987 The recovery of this company since the 1980s has been truly remarkable. When you were down in the dumps, people were saying American industry was finished, that we couldn't compete in the global economy, that the next century would belong to other countries and other places. Today, you're not just surviving -- you're flourishing, with record sales and earnings; and one of the best-managed companies in America. According to management and labor, one of the reasons you're the best-managed company in America is that you have a genuine partnership between labor and management, where all employees are valuable and expected to make good decisions on their own for the benefit of the common enterprise. And I thank you for setting that example. I wish every manufacturer in America would model it. President Bill Clinton, speech at Harley-Davidson plant, York Pennsylvania, November 10, 1999 It’s one thing to have people buy your products. It’s another for them to tattoo your name on their bodies.

  • Harley-Davidson, Inc
    HARLEY-DAVIDSON, INC. Dalton E. Brannen Jeffrey R. Miller Nabil A. Ibrahim Augusta State University In 1903, two young childhood friends from Wisconsin developed their first prototype of a motor- powered bicycle. It was capable of speeds of almost 25 miles per hour. Today, Harley- Davidson (HD) is the only major American manufacturing concern that continues to produce American-made motorcycles. Harley-Davidson has had a long and proud tradition. However, it has also faced many problems. While producing a poor product and encountering significant competition from Japanese companies, Harley-Davidson came close to bankruptcy. The company’s turnaround was spectacular. During its history, Harley-Davidson has had five distinct management tenures or waves, each of which had a significant impact on its operations. The story of Harley-Davidson shows the impact that management can have on a company, both for bad and for good. Much can be learned from one of the greatest comebacks in the history of American business. INTRODUCTION The story of Harley-Davidson Motor Company (HD) is one of the most remarkable in the history of American enterprise. From its humble beginnings in 1903 in a backyard shed, the company grew steadily even through the travails of the Depression and two World Wars. However, the growth stalled and severe problems became evident in the late 1960’s. The excellent reputation that Harley-Davidson had developed was on a downward spiral as the products they produced were of poor quality and dated design and technology. Their market share was minuscule. To make matters worse, during the 1960’s and 1970’s, Japanese companies significantly increased exports of motorcycles to the United States and, in the process, were accused of dumping.
