Spread too thin
From: www.brw.com.au
"According to current management thinking, conglomerates are dinosaurs. With occasional exceptions, such as the United States corporation GE, the best companies now concentrate on their core competencies. Most global companies have sought to be the best in the world at one or two things, and then placed parts of their company in locations where they can find either the lowest costs or the smartest workers.
But nobody seems to have told that to Australia's oligopolies."
