Abstract
Appropriate for general management courses emphasizing operations strategy and senior leadership. Senior leadership in a company''s global manufacturing department must respond to the critical senior management directive to achieve a 25% cost reduction. Under the direction of an advisory firm, an operational transformation strategy is developed and implementation is underway in the company''s global network of 28 sites. Elements of the transformational program, including leadership challenges and progress after one year of implementation are presented. Students are asked to critique the progress and offer suggestions for the new vice president, who has recently been tasked with continuing a successful program rollout.
