Webasto Roof Systems Americas: Leadership Through Change (A)
Synopsis
Webasto Roof Systems, Americas, the North American subsidiary of Germany-based Webasto Group, limped into 2014 in poor financial and operational shape. The company's early optimism emerging from the financial downturn had proven naive, and now, five years later, the company was consistently losing money, and was battling severe operational challenges affecting quality and threatening customer relationships. Furthermore, senior leadership had completely turned over three times in the five year period. Now, the new--and young--leadership is attempting to navigate that crisis, and repair the organization, with an organization full of skittish and disengaged employees. Philipp Schramm, the new CFO, must figure out how to enact positive change with a team of unenthusiastic employees, and a near-toxic culture.
