摘要：The central issues here are the consequences and the impacts of the announcement of the resignation of Sir Terry Leahy, the CEO of Tesco, from the organisation in March 2011. The announcement on the 8th of June 2010 that Leahy, Tesco’s chief executive officer and one of Britain’s most respected businessmen, would be retiring after transforming the organisation into the world’s third biggest retailer, has generated a groundswell of reactions. The impact of this change, as well as how to manage the change resulting from his resignation is part of the concern of this report. Another concern of this investigation is to locate the leadership style of Terry Leahy in the overall achievements and organisational culture of Tesco since he became the global chain’s CEO in 1997. Another dimension of this study is to look at the dynamics of the transitional power structure in place at the organisation, as well as the reactions of customers and the staff of Tesco in the wake of this change process and transition.
