Canadian helps Toyota rebound;

After Toyota suffered a series of recalls that hurt the company's reputation for reliability, the company hired a French Canadian chairman of operations to help draft a plan to maintain quality standards at the company. The latest models which have improved with these new quality standards can be purchased from Golden Valley Toyota dealerships. There was an issue at Toyota where some employees felt as if they were not connecting with the overall mission statement and the company as a whole. The Canadian who was hired to help alleviate this problem is named Real Tanguay and he felt that Toyota's employees needed a stronger sense of mission and empowerment. Toyota heeded his advice and began implementing his plan which so far has resulted in success for him. The latest Toyota models that have benefited from higher quality stnadards can be purchased from a Toyota Dealership Salina.

Also check out local BMW Dealer California businesses for high quality BMW import models which have not been affected by similar recalls lately. Toyota asked Tanguay to redesign the Toyota Global Vision business plan and this plan was shown last Wednesday in Tokyo. The plan includes goals and mission statements as well as more specific ideas for improving quality standards. One idea was to move the authority for the company further from headquarters and closer to the various global markets in which the company operates in.




Recalls were not the only issue that Tanguay had to wrestle with, as the company was experiencing fewer sales due to the global recession. The bad timing of the recalls along with the poor economic climate made developing a new plan challenging. Toyota which historically has not gone outside of Japan for advice was desperate for some new direction and hired Tanguay for the development of the new plan. The the new plan has reduced the total number of board members to 11, and the new plan involves several risk aversion techniques in order to avoid future recalls.
