"Once the hard times come, there is really no choice but to take a deep breath, grit your teeth and go all out." The description in the memoirs of Iacocca, a legend in the automobile industry, describes the present situation of Detroit: the once dense forest of high-rise buildings has become sparse, and the demolished buildings seem to indicate that Detroit has lost its former glory. The city is depressed and desolate. People flee the city every day. It has become the city with the fastest population decline in the United States, with a population of only 900,000 now. And half a century ago, Detroit (Latin: City of the Straits) prospered because of the automobile industry, which can be described as the most dynamic city in the world with a population of 2 million.
All this stems from the decline of the three major American auto companies.
Only Ford, led by alan mulally, has become the only local guardian of Detroit's automobile industry. Now people can only judge whether Detroit is "dead" or "alive" by Mulally's performance.
Mulally publicly stated at the end of last year that bankruptcy is impossible for Ford, and the company is now focusing on revitalizing and improving cash flow: "Our most important task now is to keep the Ford brand alive."
Mulally, 64, has 37 years of working experience in the aviation industry. According to his past work experience, he can't see any connection with cars. When he took over as CEO of Ford in 2006, he found that amateurs even scribbled after signing letters, not cars. In 2006, when he became CEO of Ford, Ford lost $654.38+0.27 billion and was on the verge of bankruptcy. At that time, everyone's doubts almost turned into anger: "Why not find someone who knows more about cars to solve the problem?"
But alan mulally proved himself in overwhelming doubt.
