Saturn

Robert talks with Naomi Goodin, a line worker at the Saturn Corporation in Tennessee, about Saturn's unique management structure. Although no Saturn cars were produced during the General Motors brake parts strike, Saturn workers remained on the job to do training, team development and other workshops. Saturn workers are organized in "teams," within which jobs are rotated. Goodin is a team leader whose team puts doors on Saturn automobiles.
