Top company officials also don't have the luxury of their own offices. That is not Japanese custom, according to Pierce, a Wisconsin native who came to Alpine from Delco Electronics in Kokomo. Instead the office is one room filled with 24 desks, which includes one for Yoshida and one for Pierce.

The company's teamwork is displayed every morning at one minute before eight o'clock with two minutes of exercises. The non-strenuous loos-ening-up exercises give the production workers a nice start to the day, Yoshida said. "The brain knows when it's time to start up the assembly line, but the body doesn't always know," Yoshida said. The Japanese company also stresses employee communications. After morning exercises the employees meet with their team leaders and discuss the work for the day and any problems that may have occurred the previous day.

"The essence here is not just to have people work," Yoshida said. "This is not our style. We like them (the workers) to know what direction we're going."
