Tiivistelmä: | The pan-European, pan-global company of the future is already here, and its name is ABB. The question is whether the rapid structural and cultural transformation achieved by merging two mighty national engineering groups, Asea of Sweden and Brown Boveri of Switzerland, could have happened without the iron will of its formidable president and chief executive, P. Barnevik. ABB's performance as a paradigm of what can be accomplished from a non-EC European base within the space of 4 years suggests that, personalities apart, leadership makes the crucial difference. |
