The Golden Arches

I respect McDonald's. They took a lot of heat in the last decade about being unhealthy and not meeting the needs of the consumers' diets. They have adapted their entire business and stores to meet that need. This is mostly a result of the openness to change in the CEO's leadership. This has made the corporation fast to adapt to the market's criticism. Cantalupo's distinct leadership giving the company a competitive advantage, even when faced with changing management.

In a business that is a global leader in the food industry, it is important for McDonald's to adapt quickly to meet the needs of different cultures in a speedy manner. Even ketchup tastes different in different cultures! With these types of worldwide differences, McDonald's needs to have an open and diverse workforce or community.
