Oliver Dalton: Difference between revisions

I was on hand once when Oliver's reputation across the company was demonstrated.  Chasing a problem, one of Oliver's staff had discovered a serious problem with the now shipping design.  Oliver picked up the phone and called the plant manager and suggested that it would be a good idea to halt shipments until the problem was resolved.  The word went out across the company that "Oliver said to shut the line down", and it was.  Further, virtually the whole company was suddenly at his disposal to solve said problem.  His reputation was such that what Oliver said pretty much directed the situation upward and downward through the organization.
