"I built this company fro the ground up. i know more about constructing gambling ships than anybody in the business. That's why we are number one. My motto is "I think and employees work". This empowerment you're selling just that - nonsense. if i wan an employees opinion. I'll give it to him!"Luke O'Hara, GSI's new quality director, listened respectfully as his boss ranted on. but he had to admit that Hansen had a point. GSI's CEO could do every job in the yard better than the best employees on the payroll. He was also right about GSI's position of market leadership.
