Abstract:
|
The case examines how SRC Holdings, a key player in the engine and parts
remanufacturing market in the US, turned itself around by implementing the 'Open
Book Management' philosophy. The case gives an overview of the evolution of SRC
and the problems that necessitated the adoption of the OBM philosophy. Details
of how and why SRC opened its financial books to employees and made them
partners in the business are given. The case then discusses the evolution of
SRC's 'Great Game of Business' (GGOB) system. It examines the company's unique
organizational culture that emerged on account of implementing OBM and GGOB. The
case also reviews the benefits SRC reaped on account of the OBM and GGOB
initiatives.
