Dear Friends, 

Following is just one of 200+ letters that I wrote to 7500 employees of Larsen & Turbo Ltd’s, Mumbai factory, when I was General Manager (1979 - 1987). This open honest communication led to a remarkable improvement in industrial relations. If you wish to download the entire set, just click here

UNIT LEVEL PRODUCTVITY MEETINGS IN YOUR AREAS

 

 I  have,  yesterday,  personally  spoken  to  the  Union  Jt. Secretary  of  your   department  regarding  this.    He  has promised to speak to shop-reps and extend all cooperation. It  is now upto  us to seize  the initiative  and hold  these meetings every fortnight starting at once. The performance-ratios must  be, as far as  possible, related to an  individual's output so he  understands that he  has to produce 25% more.  Graphs  (black-boards) must be displayed -bold & prominent.
