Anne Mulcahy - Xerox Case Study

Anne Mulcahy- Xerox Case Study

I believe that Mulcahy addressed her creativity very effectively. She was smart and flexible; she can respond to different situations accordingly and engage different states of awareness. For example, she travelled and galvanized ‘the troops’ by visiting Xerox offices and inspiring the employees. She was motivated. She appealed to employees with missionary zeal, in videos and in person and rewarded those who stuck it out not only by refusing to abolish raises but with symbolic gestures as well. She also gave the employees birthday off. Other creative characteristics of Mulcahy were she work hard, measure the results, tell the truth, and be brutally honest. She has a rich and clear insight into reality. For example, She confronted with the bankers and customers and was upfront with them from the beginning. She is energetic and tough but compassionate. She showed the ability to make hard decisions. For instances she slashed costs in part by cutting Xerox’s workforce by 30% and she shut down the desktop division.
