Overview: Tom Burbage and his 500-person team at Lockheed Martin went after the biggest military deal in U.S. history and scored a $200 billion victory: a contract to build the Joint Strike Fighter. They didn't play it safe; they played to win. Read in the case study that the core of Lockheed's JSF team is based in a sprawling, windowless edifice located in the heart of the company's Fort Worth facility, which employs 11,000 workers. At the plant's epicenter is a milelong factory where the F-16 fighter is under production. During the next 18 months, the JSF team will grow from 500 project honchos and technical wizards to 5,000. Know more on leadership through the examples of these companies.
