Leadership in the 90s

Article Abstract:

The credit industry is constantly being subjected to forces of change. Given the turbulence of the industry, credit managers cannot use past successes as bases for present or future performance. Industry leaders need to be able to compete, both domestically and globally, if they want to remain in the business. A competitive company continually strives to be tougher, leaner, faster and more diverse than the competition. In the 1990s, the areas where competition in the credit industry is fiercest include customer base, internal leadership, the right location for headquarters, community involvement, human resources, diversity management, technology, corporate education and training, and communication with government officials.
