Xerox History and its Barriers
Xerox was Founded in 1906, Rochester, NY, US. In 2001,Xerox, the well-known copier company, was near to bankruptcy. WHY?
• The combination of aggressive Japanese competitors, which were selling low-price copiers.
• A shift toward digital copying, which made Xerox’s pioneering light-lens copying process obsolete.
• Failing to hire the right people for essential positions.• Always beat up on suppliers.• Violations of the “GAAP

Xerox History and its Barriers
What was the result?All these challenges was resulting in plummeting sales. Losing
billions of dollars and Xerox was near bankruptcy
How does Xerox find a way to get out of the bottle neck? Xerox’s board desperately searched for a new CEO who could
revitalize the company’s transformation was Anne Mulcahy, a 26-year Xerox veteran. Mulcahy began her career as a Xerox copier salesperson, transferred into human resource management, and then used her considerable leadership skills to work her way up the company’s hierarchy to become its president.
Let’s Discuss how Anne Mulcahy created a new XEROX
Anne Management Skills
Human Skills
Anne had used her leadership skills to meet Xerox employees and customers, asking them for all kinds creative inputs and their best efforts .Anne has communicated her near future policy to the employees “laying off and how hard work is required to reduce the cost and best utilize the R&D budget”.
One of the communication skills that Anne has used is to listen to customers through Xerox team (Managers, sales, and engineers) she has initiated the “Focus 500” Which require that Xerox’s Top 200 Mangers go out and visit Xerox Top 500 customers
Anne Management Skills
Conceptual skills
Closely listening to employees and customers has led to developing new strategies that transformed the product line Two main strategies Anne has implemented:
1. is to develop two new kinds of digital copiers, one is high end digital color copiers targeting medium and large business, and the other is low end copiers offering print quality, speed, and price not even matched by Japanese
2. is to invest more resources to develop new efficient sales and service network to support customers
"Employees who believe that management is concerned about them as a whole person - not just an employee - are more productive, more satisfied, more fulfilled"

“ One of the things we often miss in succession planning is that it should be gradual and thoughtful, with lots of sharing of information and knowledge and perspective, so that it's almost a non-event when it happens” MULCHAY , ANN
