The Anderson Corporation was started in 1962 as a small consumer products company. During the first 20 years thecompany’s R&D staff developed a series of new products that proved to be very popular in the marketplace. Things wentso well that the company had to add a second production shift just to keep up with the demand. During this time period thefirm expanded its plant on three separate occasions. During an interview with a national magazine, the firm’s founder, PaulAnderson, said, “We don’t sell our products. We allocate them.” This comment was in reference to the fact that the firm hadonly 24 salespeople and was able to garner annual revenues in excess of $62 million.Three years ago Anderson suffered its first financial setback. The company had a net operating loss of $1.2 million. Twoyears ago the loss was $2.8 million, and last year it was $4.7 million. The accountant estimates that this year the firm willlose approximately $10 million. Alarmed by this information, Citizen’s Bank, the company’s largest creditor, insisted that thefirm make some changes and start turning things around. In response to this request, Paul Anderson agreed to step aside.The board of directors replaced him with Mary Hartmann, head of the marketing division of one of the country’s largestconsumer products firms. After making an analysis of the situation, Mary has come to the conclusion that there are a numberof changes that must be made if the firm is to be turned around. The three most important are as follows:1. More attention must be given to the marketing side of the business. The most vital factor for success in the sale ofthe consumer goods produced by Anderson is an effective sales force.2. There must be an improvement in product quality. Currently, 2 percent of Anderson’s output is defective, as against0.5 percent for the average firm in the industry. In the past the demand for Anderson’s output was so great thatquality control was not an important factor. Now it is proving to be a very costly area.3. There must be a reduction in the number of people in the operation. Anderson can get by with two-thirds of itscurrent production personnel and only half of its administrative staff. Mary has not shared these ideas with the boardof directors, but she intends to do so. For the moment she is considering the steps that will have to be taken inmaking these changes and the effect that all of this might have on the employees and the overall operation.CASE QUESTIONS:1. What is wrong with the old organizational culture?2. What needs to be done to change it?3. Why might it be difficult for Mary to change the existing culture?4. What specific steps does Mary need to take in changing the culture? Identify and describe at least two.
