Toyota Moves Towards Lean And Mean By Slashing Board Of Director Positions To Streamline Decision Process

Toyota Motor Corp., the world‘s largest automaker, plans to cut its board to at least 17 members from the current 27 to improve decision-making after a series of product recalls in its biggest management reorganization in eight years, two people familiar with the company‘s plan said.

Toyota currently has 27 directors, including the chairman, president, six executive vice presidents and 15 senior managing directors. The reduction in the number of board members will include cutting the number of executive vice presidents, the people said. The changes are likely to take place as early as April, before the shareholders’ meeting in June, they said.

This maybe a good thing but they definitely need to restructure their thinking! They need to but safety and reliability at the for front or else the rep will slide!
