Abstract:
Hyundai, which forayed into the US car market in the mid-1980s, always had an image of a low quality carmaker. From the beginning, it had failed to live up to the quality expectations of the Americans. Hyundai's cars were bought only as a last resort and the company used to feature at the bottom of most of the quality surveys. The situation changed dramatically after Chung Mong Koo took over as the CEO of Hyundai in 1999.
Pedagogical Objective:
- To discuss the initiatives taken by Chung Mong to build break the image of Hyundai as a low quality car marker.
