I was at Ford for 32 years. I went to Chrysler in 1978, four or five months after I got canned by Henry Ford.
The one word that makes a good manager - decisiveness.
I forgot to shake hands and be friendly. It was an important lesson about leadership.
I'm sometimes described as a flamboyant leader and a hip-shooter, a fly-by-the-seat-of-the-pants operator. But if that were true, I could never have been successful in this business.
I hire people brighter than me and then I get out of their way.
