In a 2020 podcast appearance, he described the printing industry's consolidation as inevitable, attributing survival to being a low-cost producer and adapting to changing market conditions. He emphasized the importance of understanding why a business performs well, identifying core competencies, and building strong client relationships, noting that "growth hides all sins" and that companies must innovate beyond their foundational services.
