GM to ask Toyota for help to fix business?

Seeking some kaizen

Toyota has always been known for it's kaizen-influenced business model, or the constant move towards efficiency in all elements of its business. From manufacturing to developing new automobiles, such as hybrid cars, kaizen influences every aspect of Toyota's corporate culture.

CNBC just reported that there are now rumors that GM might seek some sort of assistance from Toyota to help turn GM's business around. Is GM seeking some kaizen?

LOL.

No way that Congress won't bailout out GM in my opinion. There are just too many jobs on the line.

Thus, if Toyota could help GM become more efficient in manufacturing, etc. that would be a good thing.

It's all about the lesser of evils at this point.

GM has already denied these reports. So, I guess that's pretty much the end of that.
