Doug Field - Good Riddance!
Even though I left ford in July 2022, I still want to post this. I never told anyone this story.
Doug field once told me and my team “We move as a snail and bring no innovation” though consistently our team was top performing team.
Because of constant badgering my manager quit then my supervisor and then my entire team along with me.
We all went to different companies and many are in leadership positions at suppliers and OEMs now.
When my Manager & team was leaving he said “Good Riddance” despite the team had filed 52 patents in past three years.
He constantly undermined “Ford way” and tried to rope us in with a mentality of “Tesla” or “Apple” or “whatever”.
After four years he was shown the door when he achieved nothing but lost $20B in EV “innovation”. Because of him good ford Engineers left or were forced out.
If any Ford management is reading, I want to tell you that you should consider what you lost and earned by bringing someone who never valued you or your business but in the process you let loyal and innovative people go.
I have no regrets leaving the company but I felt bad for many folks who I were left to take orders from someone who did not value them.
Patent your idea
If you came up with a great idea, get in touch with the Intellectual Property department.
Not only could you get a share of any royalties, your name is on the patent - proving you innovated.
Maybe someone at Dell will forget about you - but other employers will see what you can do.
