H. M. Taliaferro
(Con Hum'll from page 21)
ference of One Hundred which met at White Sulphur Springs in 1934, president of Grand Rapids Association of Commerce and chairman of its Better Housing Committee, chairman of the Michigan Advisory Committee of the New York World’s Fair, and of the Grand Rapids Industrial Bureau, member of the Michigan Advisory Committee on Education and of the Governor’s Welfare and Relief Study Commission, president of Grand Rapids Rotary, Community Chest, hospital and bank director, etc., etc.
His very practical idealism which has been energetically injected into these many public activities, quite definitely begins at home. His plant organization has long been recogized as a model on the human side as well as for its mechanical and production efficiency. Beginning with a genuine interest in the life and problems of his "fellow employees” and with man-to-man talks and group conferences, there grew up among them a notably fine employee welfare and cooperation program. In form it consists of a House of Representatives elected by the men of the factory departments, a Senate consisting of departmental foremen, and the president’s cabinet composed of his executive staff.
Incidentally, the similarity to the national government has not been neglected as a means of stimulating patriotism and civic responsibility. A record of more than 20 years of smooth running effectiveness has demonstrated the success of the plan. The group loyalty of the American Seating employees is notable. The personality and character level has advanced steadily to a high average while the educational background has advanced from a third grade to a ninth grade average among the workers. Regular classes are conducted in foremanship, citizenship and other subjects contributing to the increasing growth, usefulness and dependability of the men.
A significant slant on Taliaferro’s business philosophy is often heard around the plant when he is addressed as "Boss.” "I’m not the boss of this company,” he says, "the customer is boss. He’s the one you have to please.” His favorite statement about the responsibility of Industrial Management, which he is often called upon to discuss in public, is that management is an endless job of keeping in balance the interests of the customer, the employee and the stockholder. He puts the customer first, he says, because without customer confidence and approval there will be neither wages nor dividends. But because he also believes in a living wage and employment security and in a reasonable return to investors, he keeps his large organization on its toes in finding ever more effective ways of stabilizing production
