Talking Points: Moore Wallace & RR Donnelley Combination
Before you meet or talk with your reports, please read:
| 1. | Mark Angelson’s letter to all employees. |
Please let your people know that everyone with Intranet access will find this information on InMooreWallace. (SALES: There is a tool on the Intranet that will allow your reps to send a short HTML e-mail about this combination to customers.)
Please make sure that all the combination-related information is printed and posted on the bulletin boards in your office or facility.
Key points to reinforce during your meeting:
Ø | This is an exciting combination. It gives Moore Wallace a broader product line, a more complete service platform, the best known name in the printing industry, and the increased size and scale that will support growth and investment. |
Ø | You can take this as a compliment. Your hard work demonstrated that two respected, long-time printing organizations can come together andwork together to create a successful combination. The “Moore way” or the “Wallace way” wasn’t a favored approach. The “best way” was chosen. That philosophy will continue. |
Ø | Mark Angelson will be the CEO of the combined organization. He will be running the new entity. |
Ø | This combination is complementary, not duplicative. There is very little overlap in the businesses. |
Ø | The combination is expected to be completed in the spring. There will be integration teams assigned to facilitate the combination. But in the meantime, everyone needs to stay focused on our business. Customers still need the products and services we provide, and our investors still require a return. More information will be distributed as it becomes available – but there are restrictions on what kinds of information can be made public during the period before the combination becomes final. |
Let’s all take a moment to say, “Wow!” and then get back to doing the things that are making Moore Wallace successful.
