Reading the HP Way PDF, I was struck that several authors bothered to call out that HP used first/personal names to address fellow employees.

I can't imagine NOT doing so, but obviously ~40 years ago, that was uncommon enough to be noteworthy.

They did that even in Germany when I visited there in the 90s. I had never seen this before.
