The fraud put 50,000 jobs at risk and damaged India's IT sector reputation. A new board was appointed to sell the company. Tech Mahindra ultimately acquired Satyam for a third of its previous value. The Indian government and regulators implemented new measures to prevent future financial scams.

Case: Taking Charge at Domtar: What It Takes for a
Turnaround* (http://content.thuzelearning.com/books/AUBUS680.16.1/sections/i8#ch01fnt02)
Domtar is the third largest producer of uncoated freesheet paper in North America. In the decade prior to 1996,
Domtar had one of the worst �inancial records in the pulp and paper industry. At that time it was a bureaucratic and
hierarchical organization with no clear goals. Half of its business was in “trouble areas.” Moreover, the company did
not have the critical mass to compete with the larger names in the �ield. The balance sheet was in bad shape, and the
company did not have investment-grade status on its long-term debt.
In July of 1996, Raymond Royer was named president and chief executive of�icer (CEO). This was quite a surprise
because, although Royer had been successful at Bombardier, he had no knowledge of the pulp and paper industry.
Many believed that to be successful at Domtar, you needed to know the industry.
Royer knew that to be effective in any competitive industry, an organization needed to have a strategic direction
and speci�ic goals. He decided to focus on two goals: return on investment and customer service. Royer told Domtar
executives that to survive, they needed to participate in the consolidation of the industry and increase its critical
mass. The goal was to become a preferred supplier. The competitive strategy had to focus on being innovative in
product design, high in product quality, and unique in customer service. At the same time, however, it had to do
everything to keep costs down.
When Royer took over at Domtar, he explained to the executive team that there were three pillars to the
company: customers, shareholders, and ourselves. He noted that it is only “ourselves” who are able to have any
impact on changing the company. He backed up his words with action by hiring the Kaizen guru from Bombardier.
Kaizen, a process of getting employees involved by using their expertise in the development of new and more
effective ways of doing things, had been very effective at Bombardier. Royer saw no reason why it would not be
successful at Domtar. Royer also knew that for the new strategic direction and focus to be successful, everyone
needed to bot.

In July of 1996, Raymond Royer was named president and chief executive of�icer (CEO). This was quite a
surprise because, although Royer had been successful at Bombardier, he had no knowledge of the pulp and
paper industry. Many believed that to be successful at Domtar, you needed to know the industry.
Royer knew that to be effective in any competitive industry, an organization needed to have a strategic
direction and speci�ic goals. He decided to focus on two goals: return on investment and customer service.

increase its critical mass. The goal was to become a preferred supplier. The competitive strategy had to focus on

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

3. Case Study : Domtar
• Third Largest Producer of
uncoated free sheet
paper in North America.
• In the decade prior to
1996, it had one of the
worst financial records in
the pulp and paper
industry.
4. Case Study : Domtar
• Bureaucratic and hierarchical
organization with no clear
goals.
• Half of the business in trouble
areas.
• Did not have critical mass to
compete with bigger names in
the industry.
• Balance sheet was in bad
shape.
• Did not have investment grade
status in its long term debts.
5. Case Study : Domtar
• In 1996, Raymond Royer
was name president and
CEO.
• He decided to focus on
two goals.
– Return on investment.
– Customer service.
6. Case Study : Domtar
• Royer told Domtar
employees that in order to
survive, they need to
participate in the
consolidation of the
industry and increase its
critical mass.
• The goal was to become the
preferred supplier.
7. Case Study : Domtar
• He explained to the executive
team that there are three pillars
to the company.
– Customers.
– Shareholders.
– Ourselves.
• He noted that it is only
“ourselves” that are able to have
any impact on changing the
company.
8. Case Study : Domtar
• Royer implemented Kaizen in
Domtar, a process of getting
employees involved by using
their expertise in the
development of new and more
effective ways of doing things.
• He believed in tapping the
intelligence of experts, the
employees.
9. Case Study : Domtar
• The success of any change
process requires extensive
training and therefore, training
became a key part of Royer’s
strategy for Domtar.
• He believed that it is
employees competence that
make the difference. This was
later called the “Domtar
Difference”.
10. Case Study : Domtar
• Training a Domtar went
beyond the traditional job
training necessary to do
the job effectively and
include training in
customer service and
kaizen.
11. Case Study : Domtar
• Using the Kaizen Approach,
employees developed a new way of
cutting trees into planks.
• The result was fewer wood chips to
transport and more logs produced per
tree.
• Since 1997, it is estimated that Kaizen
has saved Domtar about $ 230 million
in production cost.
• Two of their mills are among the
lowest cost mills in North America.
12. Case Study : Domtar
• First quarter net earnings in
1998 were $ 17 million
compared with a net loss of $
12 million for the same period
in 1997, his first year in office.
• In 2002, third quarter earning
were $ 59 million, and totaled
$ 141 million for the year.
13. Case Study : Domtar
• Domtar became the only paper
and pulp company in north
America to be included in the
Dow Jones Sustainability list.
• In 2003, Paperloop, the pulp
and paper industry’s
international research and
information service, named
Royer Global CEO of the year.
14. Case Study : Domtar
• The committee said that
Royer was selected for the
award for his ability to
integrate acquired
businesses through a
management system that
engages employees.
• This happens only through
training.
15. Case Study : Domtar
• It was Royer’s sound management
policies and shrewd joint ventures
and acquisitions that helped
Domtar became more competitive.
• However, joint ventures and
acquisitions bring additional
challenges of integrating the new
companies into the “Domtar way”.
• This requires training.
