At the end of 2008, Ford Motor Company was just months away from running out of cash. With the auto industry careening toward ruin, Congress offered all three Detroit automakers a bailout. General Motors and Chrysler grabbed the taxpayer lifeline, but Ford decided to save itself.
\n
\nUnder the leadership of charismatic CEO Alan Mulally, Ford had already put together a bold plan to unify its divided global operations, transform its lackluster product lineup, and overcome a dys\u00adfunctional culture of infighting, backstabbing, and excuses. It was an extraordinary risk, but it was the only way the Ford family\u2014America\u2019s last great industrial dynasty\u2014could hold on to their company.
\n
\nMulally and his team pulled off one of the great\u00adest comebacks in business history. As the rest of Detroit collapsed, Ford went from the brink of bankruptcy to being the most profitable automaker in the world. American Icon is the compelling, behind-the-scenes account of that epic turnaround.
\n
\nIn one of the great management narratives of our time, Hoffman puts the reader inside the boardroom as Mulally uses his celebrated Business Plan Review meet\u00adings to drive change and force Ford to deal with the painful realities of the American auto industry.
\n
\nHoffman was granted unprecedented access to Ford\u2019s top executives and top-secret company documents. He spent countless hours with Alan Mulally, Bill Ford, the Ford family, former executives, labor leaders, and company directors. In the bestselling tradition of Too Big to Fail and The Big Short, American Icon is narrative nonfiction at its vivid and colorful best.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":15331,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[19],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-15330","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-leiderschap","8":"first","9":"instock","10":"shipping-taxable","11":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/koeky.nl\/boeken\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/15330","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/koeky.nl\/boeken\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/koeky.nl\/boeken\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/koeky.nl\/boeken\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15330"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/koeky.nl\/boeken\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15331"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/koeky.nl\/boeken\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15330"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/koeky.nl\/boeken\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=15330"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/koeky.nl\/boeken\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=15330"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/koeky.nl\/boeken\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=15330"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
