  37. Results 2000-2006 • Between 2000 and 2005 at Home Depot: • Sales rose 75%. • Profits doubled. • By 2006, world's third largest retailer.

  38. Home Depot in 2006 • Fortune magazine Number One Most Admired Specialty Retailer for 2006. • April 2006: Model of corporate governance in an article in the Harvard Business Review .

  39. ERM Concern? • Home Depot: • Stock price dropped 7%. • Lowe’s: • A major competitor. • Over 1200 stores (half the size of Home Depot). • Stock price rose by 210%.

  40. Story One • Inventory was sluggish at Home Depot: • CEO focused on a single metric -- inventory turnover. • Store managers stopped ordering inventory. • Shelves were often empty of goods to sell.

  41. Story Two • Home Depot cuts costs of staffing: • CEO ordered a reduction of full-time staffing. • Part-timers to make up half of the workforce. • Part-timers have no real commitment to the company.

  47. Home Despot • The company itself to disgruntled employees.

  48. Home Depot Finale • On January 2, 2007, Home Depot and Robert Nardelli mutually agreed on Nardelli's resignation as CEO after a six-year tenure. Nardelli resigned amid complaints over his heavy handed management and whether his pay package of $123.7 million, excluding stock option grants, over the past 5 years was excessive considering the stock's poor performance versus its competitor Lowes.

  49. Epilogue • The story of Mr. Nardelli did not end when he left Home Depot. He became CEO of Chrysler Corporation. Although Mr. Nardelli did not get a full chance to turn around Chrysler, the Chrysler board made a calculated decision to appoint a CEO who was a crisis manager.
