Abstract:

The case focuses on the managerial and leadership qualities of Carlos Ghosn, CEO of Nissan Motor Co. Ghosn who was appointed as COO of Nissan after Renault-Nissan alliance, won accolades from both industry insiders and analysts alike for the spectacular turnaround of the ailing Japanese auto major.

As Nissan COO, Ghosn initiated a revival plan, which included massive job cuts, closing down of factories and breaking the traditional Japanese business alliances. He dismantled keiretsu - traditional Japanese supplier network - and concentrated on changing the organizational culture at Nissan. The case also throws light on some of the other important aspects of Ghosn's managerial abilities.
