It’s amazing what a good classical education will do.

They are hanging everything off the Everest as a name in the lifestyle markets and everything off the M2 as innovation in the consumer range. This simply means there is no requirement for individual...

Given the scale of the auto business my impression is that Harman will treat JBL consumer a Legacy Story and drop all but the Synthesis branded range of box loudspeakers.

The whole approach to JBL...

Have you seen the new Harman Luxury website?

Looking at The Truth pod casts one can only assume none of the patents and the walk down history corridor at Northridge apply to the mass consumer...

The thing is if Greg was in the U.K he would have been made Sir Greg Timbers by the Queen and they would not dare fire him.

I wonder if a hundred forum members turning up at Northridge in their pickup trucks and tell the xxxxx what they thought of him then errect a big statue of GT in the foyer would equalize the...

I am not sure if anyone has looked but the podcasts by the CEO spell out the whole future. Basically the CEO is a native of India and he sees the future of contemporary corporate growth in setting...

In light of recent events and the change in the Harman culture in over the past few years it is interesting to recount historically how changes in leadership were handled.

"Greg Timbers has had responsibility for more significant loudspeaker designs at JBL than anyone else since starting with the firm in 1972. He carries on the tradition of JBL...

Perhaps at some stage Don will have an opportunity to prepare a piece on Greg bridging the existing excellent writings to current day.

What is interesting is he talks about his research at Harman a lot and presents some interesting facts about the...

A few familiar faces in the video some of which went out in their own but still associated with JBL as consultants.

A timely reminder of JBL's legacy at Northridge CA.

They will still require an engineering team for product development and my guess is it will be global offices like Mexico, Europe or hire a team of external employees to remove HR overheads. I think...

Those Harman Japan brochures might endup being collectors items.

Maybe we should be archiving a bunch of drivers for the kids so when the whole mess comes around full circle again they will have...

I think it would be insightful to understand the impact of Greg's departure on the JBL brand in Japan.

The E2 was launched in Japan and at some point the ripple like a stone dropping in a pond...

Well JBL Japan has story booked the JBL story and Greg is profiled in that.

The Synthesis site is being updated so it will be interesting to see it when it's up again.

It would not surprise me...

JBL's approach to Greg's departure could have been done differently.

Looking at the Harman Board none of them have grown up in the industry or the business. Given the scale of JBL Auto segment the...
