One of the mottos Nardelli believed in is that "Leaders are the glue that holds the company together." He believes leaders have the power to turn around a dysfunctional corporate culture. Nardelli began implementing changes by harvesting the low-hanging fruit of the organization, which includes centralizing all purchasing, so they can take advantage of the purchasing power they get since they are a very large company. Then Nardelli started working on the look of the stores, made sure they were clean and changed the layout of the stores. It also had shops to set up exhibitions. With the new CEO taking office, they also changed the way they hire. Store managers no longer operate independently, are now required to send store data to headquarters, and have started using metrics to measure their operations. I will admit that cheaper labor is not always the answer, this can cause some problems
