<abstract displayLabel="Summary">The Toyota-General Motors joint venture and Volvo's Uddevalla Plant represent two different ways of organizing, the labor-intensive production of standardized products, in this case, auto assembly. The Toyota-General Motors joint venture is based on the Japanese "lean production" model, whereas Uddevalla has been called a "human-centered" model. Which model can best stimulate continuous improvement while maintaining worker morale? The authors argue that the answer is, emphatically, the New United Motor Manufacturing, Inc. (NUMMI) plant in California</abstract>
