    Help to write a letter for Torben B.

    Hi everyone.

    Im realy sad to hear that they had let go of Torben B.

    I think we should not forget that this is the gay that took the company in the late 90´s  when the firm was in a realy bad øconomical situation, and in that time you were wating almost 2 years for a new product to come, he have made Bang & Olufesen what it is to day.

    In my eys Mr Torben B he is BANG & OLUFSEN.

    We should write him a letter to let him know that we all aprisiade the work he been doing and the pleaser he have give os.

    EVERY MEMBER OF BEOWORLD SHOULD SIGN THIS LETTER.

    Dear Mr Sørensen,

    We at Beoworld were most distressed to hear of your departure from Bang & Olufsen. During your tenure as CEO, we have noticed your taking an interest in the various enthusiast groups. This has been most unexpected but very welcome and has given corporate B&O a human face for the first time in years. We feel that it is unfortunate that your time as CEO has co-incided with a down turn in the world economy which was bound to lead to difficulties when selling luxury products.

    Your vision of a succession of new products has certainly enlivened our discussions and has helped freshen the brand. We may not like all the new products but they certainly have stimulated opinions.

    We wish you every success in your future career and hope that you look in on us from time to time. You would be guaranteed a warm welcome.

    With best wishes,

     

     

    Something like that?

    Wonderful letter, Peter.

    And Danish analysts feel that the market reaction as far as share value goes has been much too severe, as one said: "The company's profit margin has been reduced, but they are making money and there are numerous novelties in the pipeline." One concern voiced is whether the "retrenchment to audio/video excellence" means they're getting out of yachting, automotive and hospitality, as that analysts saw these as strong growth areas and of benefit to the brand.

    The price graph for the shares has taken a deep dive as the value has been halved in the last 12 months. I suppose you could buy shares now without too much of a risk of getting even when selling them later. As i thought of buying those shares too only thing i am concerned is will the value go even lower as there will be an unconscious moment for the company in the economical sense, before they announce the next CEO.
