Who killed Westinghouse?

I was trained at one of the leading management institutes in India where we were constantly challenged to think through the eyes of a CEO. In my opinion, a CEO's fame as a strategic thinker is only made in the future and in most cases, long after they have ceased to be one. This article gives a very detailed insight into the journey of one of the leading industrial giants in the United States and the important strategic decisions that ultimatley lead to its destruction. I would recommend it to anybody who is even vaguely interested in corporate strategy.
