When a Factory Floor Became a Business School
Eighty-nine parts debt to one part equity. That's not a business-that's a death sentence with paperwork. Yet in 1983, Jack Stack and twelve colleagues bought a failing factory with exactly those odds, facing a situation so desperate that bankruptcy seemed inevitable. They had no safety net, no wealthy investors, no Plan B. What they did have was a radical idea: what if business wasn't some mystical realm requiring an MBA to understand, but simply a game anyone could learn to play and win? This wasn't desperation talking-it was insight born from watching traditional management fail spectacularly. Stack had seen how keeping employees in the dark created dysfunction, how withholding information bred mistrust, and how treating workers like cogs guaranteed mediocre results. So they did something audacious: they taught everyone in the company how business actually works, shared every financial detail, and gave everyone a stake in the outcome. Thirty years later, that dying factory had spawned dozens of profitable businesses, created millionaires from the shop floor, and proved that when you treat people like intelligent partners rather than expendable resources, something extraordinary happens. They don't just work harder-they transform the entire game.
