Abstract

Herman Miller is widely recognized as the leader in the office furniture industry and has built a reputation for innovation in products and processes since D. J. De Pree became president over 90 years ago. Herman Miller is one of only four companies and the only non-high-technology enterprise named to Fortune’s “Most Admired Companies” and “The 100 Best Companies to Work For” lists and also to FastCompany’s “Most Innovative Companies” list in both 2008 and 2010. The three high-technology organizations selected for these lists were Microsoft, Cisco, and Google. Unlike most firms, especially those in mature industries and most of its office furniture rivals, Herman Miller has pursued a path distinctively marked by reinvention and renewal.KeywordsCash FlowChief Executive OfficerProfit SharingTakt TimeEmployee Stock Ownership PlanThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
