Look at how the quality has dropped since Toyota has hired non-Japanese leaders to run their factories.
So them adding Jim Press to the board of directors will somehow make quality drop more? I don't quite follow the logic. Why is there this belief that all Americans are incompetent? Hasn't Jim Press's leadership expanded sales in North America? Why should he not be elligible to be part of the board when he is the president for Toyota's largest market?
