I find it fascinating that Home Depot’s former CEO Robert Nardelli is now back in the saddle at Chrysler. Although he left Home Depot under unpleasant circumstances, his resurrection at Chrysler is a noteworthy reminder that second chances are worth giving. Nardelli has the skills to turn around a company and has to have learned mightily from his mistakes at Home Depot. Let’s give him the benefit of the doubt. Reputations are redeemable. He might surprise us all.

    Hi Leslie,

    I couldn’t find a link to email you, so I’ll leave this note in comments. I admire your blog. You share a lot of concern for issues that we cover and will cover at the How Blogazine (www.HowsMatter.com/blog).

    Author Dov Seidman recently posted on the effect Barry Bonds’ reputation will have on the way people will view his achievements through history. He compares it to how businesses must learn to deal with the effect of reputation on their efforts. I think you’ll find it fascinating.

    If you are interested, you’ll find it at http://howblogazine.com/barry-bonds-makes-the-number-but-misses-the-mark

    We’ll be following your work here.
