An entrepreneur fabric manufacturer who took over a group demonstrated that he was open to any new ideas. He invited all levels of employees to give ideas. Someone from the production line approached the entrepreneur and said he had an idea that might solve a problem that had long bedeviled the company: An important type of fiber would sometimes snap, causing millions of dollars of production delays each year. The executive promised to try the idea, and it worked.

“That was a great idea,” the entrepreneur told the worker. “How long have you had this idea?”

“Thirty-two years,” the worker replied.

 

Moral: Involve all level of employees in decision making and consider their ideas.....you never know...........
