invention of the electric motor which created cheaper, more powerful, and safer automobiles. Still the automobile still had numerous problems and were mainly in the hands of the rich. It was the development of the internal combustion engine and the assembly line that was truly able to create a practical vehicle that could be used by all and
Ben Hampers book Rivethead; Tales From The Assembly Line is a gritty in your face account of a factory workers struggles against his factory, his co-workers, and the time clock. Hamper makes no apologies for any of his actions, many of which were unorthodox or illegal. Instead he justifies them in a way that makes the factory workers strife apparent to those who have never set foot on an assembly line and wouldn’t have the vaguest idea how much blood, sweat and tears

its most basic level, power means “A has power over B to the extent that [A] can get B to do something B would not otherwise do.” (Hatch, 2013, p. 231). And at any level, whether individual, group, or organizational, power assumes a contextual relationship. Hatch (2013) discusses several forms of relational power: (1) formal authority, which emanates from a hierarchal structure by which the power flows downward from those with the greatest authority; (2) counter-balancing power, by which those below
Industrial Revolution when Henry Ford founded The Ford Motor Company. Ford’s family had a part in the company with ideas and presidency. The first ideas of the company came out of Ford’s backyard with him using a bicycle to make a vehicle. The assembly line had a big impact that affected other companies by making production much faster. A wide variety of vehicles made patrons be interested in seeing what kind of inventions could be made next. Ford had a lot of great inventions still used today, like
The first type, manual assembly, is the most reconfigurable assembly system since humans are very “convertible” and can easily adapt to new tasks when the line requires convertibility or scalability. If the system is scaled down, there are fewer people on the line and each person has to perform more tasks [22]. An ATO system with manual assembly is said to be performing well if it provides customers with the required variety, while

Power is defined as the capacity that A has to influence the behavior of B so B acts in accordance with A’s wishes (p.198). Being a collaborative organization, Stryker’s power resides in four key teams: accounting, human resources management, information technologies management, and a cross functional team known as the steering committee. Power resides within these teams because they control the things that the organization needs to function. The relationships that these teams have with the organization
