Sandy Munro’s dire warning

How many times will it take for Farley to be shocked before Ford senior management gets that they are behind in an important game

 

More than once, because Ford still has senior management that haven't confronted the brutal reality that Sandy Munro described in his "Your Move OEMs...Who Will Survive?" video.

 

However, there's reason to be hopeful that things have improved at Ford when it comes to organizational change management. About a month ago, Farley held a "town hall" type event for Ford employees (including senior management) explaining that "adapt or die" are the only choices Ford Motor Company has at this point.

Like Kodak when they had the digital camera before everyone else...

Farley will be on Mad Money tonight with Jim Cramer. Cramer is a big Farley fan and thinks Farley is the only one that can take on Musk and win. I hope he is right.

Farley is content for second place with BEV. That's a smart strategy on Farley's part.

Kodak provides a good example from another industry of what faces automakers who continue to "straddle the old and new worlds", as Jim Hackett said in 2020. The inevitable results are bankruptcy or acquisition.

 

Kodak used its first mover advantage to become the #1 or #2 digital camera brand in the U.S. in the late 1990s and early 2000s. It kept that leadership position as late as 2005. But the company kept its film division going well into the 2000s as well. Disputes between the film and digital divisions made it difficult for Kodak to adapt to a rapidly changing market for digital photography. By 2010, Kodak dropped to #7 for digital cameras, and in 2012 it filed for bankruptcy.
