Newspaper tiger
Article Abstract:
Denis Thompson of West Australian Newspapers offers stock to employees, and then encourages them to boost their own returns by cutting waste and inefficiencies. Thompson is glad that the board does not interfere with management, and that the company did not jump on the diversification bandwagon. Even acquisitions in the newspaper field are avoided unless they will actually provide a return on investment.
