  • "The Rise and Fall of Saturn." (PDF)
    The Rise and Fall of Saturn In the 1980s, some labor leaders and their management counterparts in highly unionized firms could see this picture unfolding and began searching for new directions in labor-management relations. Progressive labor leaders such as UAW vice-president Don Ephlin and his corporate counterpart at GM, Al Warren, fostered a series of innovations that laid the foundation for the spread of new work systems. As we will see, these new ways of working (new for the 1980s) are still source of debate today. In fact we see them as critical to building a successful knowledge based economy and creating and sustaining good jobs for the next generation. In short, what some call “high road” or “high performance work systems” are essential to building a new Social Contract that works for all key parties—employers, employees, and the economy and society. If this is so, you might ask a very good, hard question: Why don’t all firms simply embrace and put these “high performance work systems” in place? Perhaps the best way to answer this question and to convey the lessons from these new systems of work that Ephlin, Warren, and other visionary leaders like them championed is to tell the story of the rise and fall of the Saturn Corporation.1 If you drive through the hills of middle Tennessee on I-65 about 40 miles south of Nashville you’ll encounter a curious exit for the Saturn Parkway. And if you venture to see where it goes, eventually a large industrial complex will appear at another exit, to the Donald F.

    FITTING TEAMS TO THE TASK: PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT VS. OPERATIONS IMPROVEMENT AT SATURN AND NUMMI Sharon Novak Charles H. Fine Sloan School of Management Massachusetts Institute of Technology Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139 February, 1996 Abstract In the automotive industry, Saturn and NUMMI are often touted as exemplars of successful implementation of manufacturing employee involvement. Building on data and extended on-site interviews, this paper explores the differences between the approaches taken at each plant and the relationship between worker involvement and plant performance. Based on this comparison, we offer a model to assess the fit between employee involvement activity emphasis (product development vs. operations improvement) and timescale of the involvement process. 1 FITTING TEAMS TO THE TASK: PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT VS. OPERATIONS IMPROVEMENT AT SATURN AND NUMMI1 From the 1970’s to the present, the achievements of Japanese auto makers such as Toyota, as well as the productive success of the Toyota-General Motors joint venture New United Motor Manufacturing Inc. (NUMMI ) has given rise to a great deal of study on the nature of the Japanese competitive advantage. Much of the current management literature has focused on the team-based organization of such firms, arguing that greater involvement of workers in the automotive process has fueled improvements in productivity. 2 This view, that more worker - based responsibility is better for plant productivity, inspired organizational efforts at both Saturn Corporation, a General Motors

    Monir “Lou” Sobh 2233 Grady Ridge Trail Duluth, GA 30097 The following is a brief history of the life and experiences of Lou Sobh. I was born in Torreon, Coahulia Mexico in 1944 where I went on to attend grade school and high school. As a result of the poor economy in Mexico, my parents sought a better opportunity for my four brothers and myself by moving to Gary, Indiana in 1960. After we moved to Gary, I faced the challenge of learning the English language and seeking employment. I started working as a janitor in a Shoppers World department store. At the same time, I worked as a busboy in a local restaurant. My family and I (a total of seven people) lived in a two-bedroom apartment in Gary, Indiana. While working as a janitor, I continued to teach myself English. As the result of hard work, self determination and the example set by my father who worked 15 hours a day, 365 days a year in his grocery store, I learned English well enough in six months to be promoted to a department manager at Shoppers World. I continued to work at the department store for two years. However, I was in a town where steel mills provided good-paying jobs. In 1962, I was employed by the Inland Steel Company in East Chicago, Indiana. I worked there for approximately three years as a steel production worker. U.S. Steel Tubeworks gave me an opportunity to move up in the organization as a Foreman Expediter. I worked for U.S.
