To assure that everyone did, in fact, collaborate, Dorton tied
compensation to the achievement of the strategic goals. “The technical staff wants to know what the bigger picture is. A requirement
for successful forced collaboration is the free sharing of information.” To assure that collaboration occurred all the way through
the ranks, MasterCraft had the vision statement and core values
printed on cards and requires all employees to always have the card
with them. So any manager walking though the expansive manufacturing facility can stop any worker and ask to see the card. The
cards became subtle reminders that everyone was required to collaborate to achieve common goals.
