Thanks so much for taking the time to put the Western Union story
together. I had always wondered what had happened to the company. What a
tragedy; another classic case of a lack of management vision in
transistioning the company to new markets and technology. Successful
companies must constantly reinvent themselves. I sometimes think we take
it for granted just how hard that is to do. All too often, egos, pride,
greed, and just plain bull headedness at senior management levels makes a
successful transition impossible. Employees and stockholders are the big
loosers when this happens. It sounds similar to what is gong on at Lucent
Technologies today.
