Team Zebra

The critically acclaimed insider's account of how an American company turned to its people and pulled off "the turnaround of the decade"

"Team Zebra is a spirited, powerful description of a business snatching victory from the jaws of defeat. Frangos, with a burst of energy, describes the process that moved his team from uncertainty, fear, and distrust, to clarity, confidence, and quick action."—Calhoun Wick, coauthor of The Learning Edge and President of Wick & Company

"Team Zebra is a portrayal of how a business transformation was achieved through empowerment. . . . [It] reminds us that the power to succeed lies within our people and the way in which they're inspired, motivated, and included."—John P. McCarthy, Jr., Senior Vice President and Director of Corporate Human Resources, Eastman Kodak Company

2.0 out of 5 stars Not so fast, January 11, 2012
This review is from: Team Zebra: How 1500 Partners Revitalized Eastman Kodak's Black & White Film-Making Flow (Paperback)
Kodak hovers on the edge of bankruptcy. Pension promises in the UK are unfunded and enough to swamp the company. Bad management, bad decisions. Quality control teams are sometimes a way for management to hide. As we watch Eastmond Kodak slide into bankruptcy I think we have to acknowledge that whatever good any quality improvement projects did for them it could not save the business from bad management and a bad business model going forward.
