However, American workers preferred specialized jobs that fit their personal skills and doing things their own way rather than following a strict process. 2. The Japanese were focused on pursuing a quality-based strategy in all phases of production, striving for zero defects, while Americans were satisfied with products that were "good enough." 3. The Japanese installed video monitors in the American factory to closely monitor workers' behaviors and ensure they followed proper work methods, like having cameras to check employee movements.
