For decades there have been two iconic Japanese auto companies. One has been endlessly studied and written about. The other has been generally underappreciated and misunderstood. Until now.

Superb, gripping. Although ostensibly about Honda, Rothfeder's new
book is essentially a powerful corporate parable about how sticking
to your guns can lead to real success
*Engineering and Technology*
Fascinating and insightful
*Financial Times*
Makes a strong case for considering Honda, rather than Toyota, as
the best model of management for the 21st century
*Financial Times Business Education*
This highly readable book reveals the key to Honda's success:
openness, innovation, and quality. A must-read for anyone
interested in American manufacturing.
*Subir Chowdhury, author of The Power of LEO and The Power of Six
Sigma*
Through access to highlevel Honda executives, Rothfeder dives into
a culture that sidesteps traditional hierarchy, proving that no
organization is too large to stop thinking like a start-up.
*Keith Ferrazzi, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Who’s
Got Your Back and Never Eat Alone*
Great investors profit by running against the crowd; in this
respect Rothfeder's superb book is the story of a great corporate
contrarian. It explains how Honda's idiosyncratic approach has
enabled it to prosper.
*John A. Casesa, senior managing director, Guggenheim Partners*
In an entertaining book, Rothfeder details how Honda has navigated
globalization with a strategy other multinationals should
follow.
