in each of these three phases we will build on these areas of competitive advantage. this starts with:
§ our obsession with understanding our customers,
§ our brands--especially think and lenovo.
§ our innovation in products, services and software,
§ our operational excellence and efficiency.
§ our leading position in china and asia.
§ our partnership with ibm in services, financing and sales.
§ finally, and perhaps most importantly…the dedication and skills of our people.
finally, i want to wrap up by speaking about the values of lenovo. those of us who came from ibm created "new" values only 18 months ago -- as part of a ‘values jam’ that all ibm employees participated in. our lenovo colleagues have been guided for the last several years by four key values. its no coincidence that the values lenovo has worked by are so similar to the values held by pcd.
first: serving customers
we are dedicated to the satisfaction and success of every customer.
second: innovative and entrepreneurial spirit
this means innovation that matters to our customers and our company created and delivered with speed and efficiency.
third: accuracy and truth-seeking
this means we manage our business and make decisions based on carefully understood facts.
and fourth: trustworthiness and integrity
meaning trust and personal responsibility in all relationships.
ive seen first hand what each you expect of yourselves and what you can do. its nothing short of amazing.
we have before us an extraordinary opportunity to make a difference for our custome
