These trends pre-date Anderson by years. After Leo flubbed, they learned to embrace incrementalism, and they're getting better at it. Most of what happens on Virginia Avenue would happen no matter who's at the top.
Anderson managed an almost flawless merger in sharp contrast to the debacle (perhaps about to be repeated
) at US and the not-nearly-as-bad-but-still-fuzzy comingling at Uninental, and he's managed to keep the company on steady course since.
