EXHIBIT 3.5 FORD MODEL ‘T’—THE MINDSET OF HENRY FORD
Henry Ford’s model ‘T’ remained unchanged for years while General Motors (Chevrolet) was making changes often using new technology. Henry Ford said: ‘We’ll give the customer any colour he wants as long as it is black.’ It was an arrogant statement by an arrogant man who had been on top so long he thought nothing could dislodge him from the number one position. In the late 1920s Ford nearly went out of business as a result of this myopic approach. General Motors (Chevrolet) took over as number one in the US and Ford did not catch up until the late 1980s.
· Strategic blocks: ‘one right answer approaches’, inflexibility in thinking. These affect the approach taken to solve problems. They include the tendency to rely heavily on past experience or particular techniques without challenging their appropriateness; focusing on a narrow range of options for either problem definition or problem solving; and adapting an over ly serious approach to problems which prevents the emergence of a playful, imaginative and humorous climate. · Value blocks: ‘over-generalized rigidity influenced by personal values’. These occur when personal beliefs and values restrict the range of ideas contemplated. Values co-exist and failure to reconcile them contributes to difficult personal and organizational dilemmas. · Perceptual blocks: ‘over-narrow focus of attention and interest’. These arise from a lack of sensory awareness at a physical level and therefore contribute to a lack of awareness of implications of situations. · Self-image blocks: ‘poor effectiveness through fear of failure, timidity in expressing ideas, etc.’. These reduce effectiveness in advancing ideas assertively. They arise from a lack of self confidence in the value of one’s own ideas. Individuals may be reluctant to seek help and talk about personal feelings.This barrier seems to be the greatest impediment to the successful implementation of new ideas.

Reasons for product failure
• products lack useful/meaningful uniqueness• planning is poor during the introduction phase • the introduction is badly timed, e.g. before the market is
ready for the product • key important points are sometimes overlooked in the
enthusiasm to go ahead • poor marketing and failure after launch • the top management in the organization does not provide
adequate support for the product • company politics, e.g. between various brand managers
• unforeseen high product costs.
