Steve: Our goal is take the 20th Century legend that is Indian and reanimate it as a dynamic, profitable enterprise respected as much for its business stability as its motorcycles. After six years as President of Chris-Craft, working with Stephen Julius to restore that prestigious American brand to the ranks of the world's most elite recreational powerboat builders, Steve Heese is uniquely qualified to refine and apply the new Indian business model. With a bachelor's degree in accounting from Tulane University and a master's degree in business administration from Harvard University's Graduate School of Business, Heese has both the education and experience necessary to perform the sophisticated number crunching required by startup and turnaround companies."We're going the make Indian the de facto standard in premium cruiser motorcycles and extreme customer satisfaction service," he says. "And we're going to do it at enough of a profit to ensure that the company will remain alive and well for a long, long time. Maybe even another hundred years." |
