Reply to "Ricoh USA Eliminates CEO/President"

This is probably the best article I have ever read concerning the reality at Ricoh:

http://industryanalysts.com/IA...esident_%26_CEO.html

It is such an accurate depiction of the situation since IKON took over the reigns at Ricoh.

The only item that I disagree with is that the Dealer channel is only about 12% of Ricoh's total revenue (as opposed to the 20% mentioned in the article).

The comparison to how current leadership at Konica Minolta is steadily growing revenue and becoming the new trustworthy partner for Independent Dealers across the country is very interesting, yet must be alarming for Ricoh Company LTD. in Tokyo, Japan.

Some people have stated that Jeff Hickling was Ricoh's last hope, even though he would never be accepted by the Dealer community (nor will the next IKON guy if that is the direction Ricoh is headed).

It is becoming clear that not only is the Ricoh ship still taking on water, but that no one is currently steering this vessel.
