Silicon Valley Road

"The Silicon Valley Road" tells about true experiences of Tom Maher starting as a supervisor and then proceeding up through the management ranks in several Silicon Valley Companies. Some of the experiences are truly educational and some are truly ugly. As the management experience is learned by Maher, he begins to list some of the management problems and some of the management requirements needed to run a successful company. He soon learns how to endow all the people in the factory to participate in solving the daily problems, which prompts operating costs to go down and morale to go up. Maher also learned how management must be involved in the daily factory issues by knowing what problems are present and how they are being solved. Tom Maher also found out that a "real time - on line" computer reporting system is mandatory to control the product cost, hourly schedule, inventories and raw material status.Maher, Tom is the author of 'Silicon Valley Road' with ISBN 9781589397064 and ISBN 1589397061.
