May assumed leadership of Dallas-based FedEx Kinkos in January 2006, and his resignation is effective March 31. In a letter today to FedEx Kinkos team members, May said, After an incredible 25-year career with FedEx, the time has come for me to resign and refocus my energy on my family, friends and other personal interests.
Ken has been a true ambassador for our people-first philosophy throughout his career, and he relied on that philosophy to transform the culture at FedEx Kinkos, said T. Michael Glenn, chief executive officer of FedEx Services, which includes the operations of FedEx Kinkos. This people-first spirit will continue to guide the FedEx Kinkos culture, and its important to note that FedEx Kinkos continues to play a critical role in the overall growth strategy for FedEx.

It looks to me like they are on the look out for a real pro to figure out how to grow the print side of FedEx/Kinkos. All their expertise is on the FedEx side. That means they have the logistics under control. Now they need an expert in the cutomer facing side. To which I can only say, "Good Luck!"

Kinko's / Fedex how do the two fit Kinko's printing etc. Fedex great at getting your package everywhere even beyond where the road ends.
(great phrase) Kinko's has lots of great stuff how can we show our customers the value of Kinko's (People know how ,equipment know how ,finished product know how, on time know how kinko’s ,delivery know how FEDEX) Many times i stood there and help their customers to get the end product I gusses after thirty years in print and pre-press there's not much you havn't done, besides what good is all this knowledge if you can't share it no one will never know how good you are
