You probably have a snapshot like it in your own photograph
album.
It happens when you get too close to your subject, and the
camera can’t handle the perspective.
In another sense, you can get an equally distorted picture
of the modern corporation. For viewed too close-up, it fre
quently looks bigger than it is.
Take Union Oil. In 1910—when we did but a $12,000,000
volume—we seemed much smaller. Yet at the time this teas
23% of the total petroleum business in the western states.
In 1953 we looked much bigger because we did a whopping
$325,000,000 volume. But this was only 13% of the petroleum
business in the West.
Certainly we’ve grown. We’ve had to grow to serve a bigger
market, to meet increased competition and to satisfy more
consumer needs. But in proportion to the total business, we
aren’t as big as we were 44 years ago.
Seen in perspective, the picture is clear: the Union Oil
Company, like so many so-called “big” companies, is really
getting smaller all the time!
