Weaving Teams into the Corporate Fiber:
Rebuilding Malden Mills Industries After a Destructive Fire
Mindy Gewirtz and Peter Gumpert presented along with
Yoram Shahar at the 1999 International Conference on Work Teams
(Center for the Study of Work Teams) University
of North Texas.
Virtually
leveled by a fire, Malden Mills, manufacturer of high-performance Polartec
fabrics, embraced teaming as a fundamental building block of its renewal.
This family-owned business transformed a natural disaster into
organizational renewal. Teaming provided the engine for organizational
alignment and employee empowerment, and changed the culture of the
organization, facilitating the sharing of essential knowledge. We describe
methods used to create the changes, and the internal resistance and external
pressures that threatened cross-functional teams. Finally, strategies for
creating and sustaining resilient leadership teams near and at the top of
the organization are discussed.
