As unpopular as some of executive management's post-2014 actions have been, you have to tip your hat and give them credit for an amazingly fast "turning of the ship". It has and continues to be painful in terms of the human aspect.
However, this kind of turn-around does not happen without a well-thought-out and executed vision and plan by executive leadership. If you've ever owned a company or business, then you will probably agree with my remarks. Oh, the stellar 1st quarter results were not achieved with asset sales alone.
