Robert Nardelli learned the dangers of attempting to change corporate culture during his tenure as CEO of Home Depot from 2000 to 2007. He implemented a top-down, command-and-control style of management that clashed with the company's previous culture of employee autonomy and customer service. This led to negative morale among employees and declining sales performance. Nardelli was eventually forced to resign in 2007.
