	Jim Cantalupo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		James Richard Cantalupo (November 14, 1943 – April 19, 2004) was an American executive, serving as chairman and chief executive officer of McDonald's Corporation until his sudden death by heart attack at the age of 60.
		Cantalupo started at McDonald's as its controller in 1974, became vice president in 1975, and senior vice president in 1981.
		Cantalupo previously served on the board of directors of Sears, Roebuck and Co. He was attending a McDonald's convention in Orlando, Florida when he was suddenly stricken and died.

	The Wall Street Journal Classroom Edition
		Cantalupo's cause of death was "most probably cardiac related," and the manner of death was "natural." The Medical Examiner's office declined to say whether an autopsy would be performed there, or at all.
		Cantalupo won applause on Wall Street for slashing capital spending by 40%, putting the brakes on what many analysts regarded as runaway expansion of restaurants and by paying a significantly fatter dividend.
		Cantalupo and his team addressed mounting customer complaints by speeding up drive-through service and seeing that surly employees were disciplined.

		Cantalupo focused the greatest expansion in the countries seen to be potentially the most receptive to the McDonald's appeal, which were selected on the basis of Cantalupo's Theorem.
		Cantalupo first divided the population of the given country by 25,000—there was one McDonald's for every 25,000 people in the United States in 1994.
		Cantalupo's triumphal expansion and his experience in cross-cultural management and global integration and purchasing appeared to make him the prime candidate to succeed Michael Quinlan, who had served as the McDonald's CEO from 1987 to 1998.

		Cantalupo, 59 years old, left retirement to take the top job at McDonald's, and only a few days before the world's largest restaurant company is expected to post its first quarterly loss in history, the company is reverting to operations manuals of the past in hopes of charting a brighter future.
		Cantalupo says, but he is changing cooking times so that burgers are juicier and increasing the toasting time to 17 seconds from 11 seconds so "carmelizing" of the buns can take place.
		Cantalupo has set his sights initially on simply improving the speed of service and bringing the taste of the food back to what it was a decade ago.
