...psychology king, available for ideas on any subject. Though he met some opposition at first, he put over himself and his ideas with the same technique he uses on the public-a steady flow of booklets, memos and "Thought Starters" (little Aesop-like homilies pointing up sound sales morals) circulated within the organization. Pretty far down the line on GM's organizational chart, Buck Weaver gets only about $20,000 a year salary...
