This work offers a summary of the book "THE HP WAY: How Bill Hewlett and I Built Our Company" by David Packard.
In The HP Way, David Packard tells the true story of an American giant: the Hewlett-Packard Company. In 1938, Packard and Hewlett, two college buddies, began working part-time in a rented garage in California. One year later, HP released its first product: an audio oscillator. Today it has become a $25-billion-dollar electronics company. David Packard, one of the company´s founders, describes the company's development milestone and tries to explain what led to this company´s success: government contracts during wartime, but mostly the company's management outlook which supports honesty, openness and flexibility throughout the organization. In The HP Way, the author also explains Hewlett-Packard´s strong management practices.
The HP Way is a fascinating review that will interest entrepreneurs and technologists.
