Dear Investor,
About 18 months ago, I started writing a blog for CA employees.
It was a modest experiment to see how employees would respond
to an opportunity to hear directly from me about our company, my
interactions with customers, and the process of transformation
under way at CA.
Employees tell me that this is one of the company’s most effective
communication vehicles. Many post comments or questions or
email me directly. As a result, I have found that the blog helps
me understand CA and its people every bit as much as it helps
employees understand my thinking and vision for the company.
As a company, we’d like to take a similar approach to
communicating with our investors. We’re determined to
move from a one-way communications model of press releases
and static annual reports, to a dynamic, continuous exchange
with all of our shareholders. We will roll out this approach
over time, but as a fi rst step, we’ve developed this year’s
annual report as an online experience. Called CA Today,
it’s a fresh, informative, interactive journal — and one
that will be updated quarterly. You’ll fi nd it at
ca.com/catoday/2007ar.
