In this, the first interview in a new series of video conversations with policymakers, business leaders, and economists, James Surowiecki talks to Alan Mulally, the C.E.O. of Ford, at the company’s world headquarters, in Dearborn, Michigan. Since coming to Ford from Boeing, in 2006, Mulally has launched a dramatic turnaround effort at the company, which, although still very much a work a progress, has succeeded in making Ford considerably stronger than its domestic rivals. In this conversation, Surowiecki and Mulally talk about the ongoing transformation of Ford, the move toward hybrids and electric cars, and the future of the automobile industry.
