If I can answer these and other questions to my satisfaction, I will implement the proposed change. The goal is to always offer better service, develop better relationships, offer quality materials, and of course, as a result, earn more money. Do you have an idea that could save your employer time or money? I have yet to find a successful employer who does not encourage and reward creative thinking from their workforce.

The archaic position of management versus employee must be set aside if we are to survive in a global marketplace. Everywhere in the United States, teamwork, communication, and execution are the new model for successful entrepreneurial enterprises. Organizations, as well as individuals, must develop abundance awareness. If you want an abundant life, always remember you receive in direct proportion to what you give.

The US auto industry is a perfect example of what happens when companies develop abundance awareness and when they lose it. Henry Ford, who helped usher in the industrial age, was not an instant success. His first company went out of business not because he didn’t have a good product, but because the manufacturing process involved was too costly and too slow. Following this setback, Ford decided to ask himself a better question: Who already had a proven production method that he could borrow? His answer came from the Chicago slaughterhouses.

At the beginning of the twentieth century, the United States was mainly an agricultural nation. The Chicago slaughterhouses had developed what was called a disassembly line to butcher as many cows and process the meat in the shortest amount of time possible. Ford developed his assembly line by using the same idea in reverse. Using this method Ford’s workers dropped production time from twelve hours and 30 minutes per car to one hour and 33 minutes per car. This proved very profitable.

Ford’s next move surprised everyone in the business community. He started paying his assembly line workers five dollars per day, which was more than double what comparable workers earned. He had the awareness to recognize that if his workers had more disposable income, they could afford to purchase a car. He turned his employees into customers, and the abundance reflected back to him. Further by-products of this progressive thinking were that he reduced worker turnover, increased worker morale, and attracted a better quality of employee to the company—all of which also grew profits.

Today’s US auto manufacturers do not have abundance awareness and have created a climate in which management and employees distrust or sabotage each other. Foreign manufacturers have been taking market share away from the American auto producers for years. There was a time, not so long ago, that the US auto industry was recognized as the world leader, but shortsightedness, greed, and arrogance have allowed competitors to pass them by.

Foreign manufacturers seem to have developed abundance awareness in the realm of business. They encourage teamwork and reward productivity. The result is a better image and a quality product, as well as increased job security for both employees and management.
