Tracking Strategies in the Birthplace of Canadian Tycoons: The Sherbrooke Record 1946–1976
|
| Abstract |
The strategies of the Sherbrooke Record, a small English language daily newspaper in the Eastern Townships, are tracked across three decades to draw some conclusions about strategy formation in general and about the actions of two of Canada's most prominent twentieth century businessmen in particular. John Bassett Jr. (1915-1998) and later Conrad Black (b. 1944) managed the organization early in their careers. The authors point out that the newspaper experienced a long period of stable strategy in the face of accelerating change in its environment under one leader and was then turned around financially at the expense of its quality by the other leader. The authors' conclude that healthy organizations and a healthy society need leaders who both act and care.
