"It has been clear to us for some time that something is horribly wrong at Darden. There isn't any one silver bullet that can now easily transform Darden. After suffering for many years under failed leadership, it is going to take much more than a new Olive Garden logo or minor adjustments to its compensation program to right the ship. Rather, we believe Darden needs to employ a collection of disciplined operational improvements and strategic actions from top to bottom in line with Bill Darden's core values. With the right leadership in place, we can once again see an incredibly bright future for the Darden franchise," Starboard states.
