Leadership incompetence at unheard of levels. An outdated strategy from the 70's that has proven to destroy company after company. And a diversity program that has been abused to the favor of the inexperienced. Failure has been assured while the corporation's piggy bank has been robbed of billions.
 






Harvard Business Reviews could write articles for years about the failures of Lilly. It all boils down to extremely poor decisions about which person is placed into what job.

In an Escher-esque, Möbius strip of failure, said Harvard Business Review would have to chronicle its OWN contributions to Lillyfail. In particular, LRL and more specifically DCRT, under the failed micromanagement of the Lisping Dwarf, Lackofwitz.
 












Talk about!

What is common denominator with 10 Trillion dollar economy and 100billion dollar company?

Both led by Harvard alumni. 100billion became 50billion MV, and 10Trillion became 600 Trillion problem (consider CDO leverage -- that has not been emancipated).
 






This year's Shareholder report should be a wretch-inducing work of fiction and mendacity spinning the coming catastrophe into something only the mentally ill would believe. The cover will no doubt be of a lab coat wearing So. Asian woman, staring intently at colored water in a volumetric flask. Above her, a thought-bubble will read: "I WORK FOR THE ASS OF THE WORLD" translated into 27 languages...

Your company never had total sales close to $100B. Where did you get this information? In your wildest dreams would this be true.

Idiot! The total value of the 1 billion shares of outstanding Lilly stock was once $100 billion. It is now around $35 billion. That is $35 times 1 billion shares, Einstein. It has nothing to do with sales. The cost of an education is miniscule compared to the cost of ignorance. Go read a book or something. One that has more words than pictures in it.
 






I remember being told once by a genius director or sub-director that if lly market cap. fell below $56 billion, it would be a take-over target. Now, we long for the days of $56/share, with over a decade of underwater options. And it will only spiral far below $34/share once zyppie-de-do-dah loses the patent. Coming soon folks.
