Green's incredible accomplishments were based not on business-school theory but on his grassroots experiences as a store manager and his creative application of cutting-edge ideas, including:
Allow managers to spend no more than thirty minutes per day on paperworkInstead of paying a middleman, assemble as much of the product as possible in-houseGive buyers the freedom to purchase without restraint?but within the realm of common senseKeep God and family first
