The Pride That Killed Sony

El articulo habla del ultimo año de Sony. Y todo lo que ha hecho para darse en la madre y perder su primer lugar mundial en venta de Electronicos.

Sony has suffered from hubris, the pride that kills. Several years ago, a Sony executive told me that because it no longer had "any real competitors" it must concentrate on its "creative dreams." No longer. On October 28, Sony held a press conference, in a hall filled with over 1,000 journalists, to announce a major restructuring to cope with plunging sales and profits. At the same time, at a smaller venue, Sony's arch-rival, Matsushita Electric Industrial (nyse: MC - news - people ), announced that profits for the fiscal half-year ending in September were up 59%, a sharp contrast with Sony's 51% plunge for the same period. "I am surprised Sony made the restructuring announcement at the same time as Matsushita announced its results; in previous years they would not have cared what we were doing," said Yukio Shohtoku, head of Matsushita's international operations.
