Sears/Kmart's failure was a organizational mindset problem. A few years ago, I visited locations from the Gulf Coast to Baton Rouge with a few guys with Sears Holdings to scope out a project we were working on for them. It was like type warps dealing with the employees/managers and corporate, they seemed stuck in the early 90's or earlier. Admittedly I didn't know much about retail, but I thought to myself over and over again, this is why this is doing to fail.

They were stuck in the 1990's with way too many chiefs micromanaging. Their headquarters in Chicago is a waste (especially the HR department)
