His life after that was never the same. Don keough would go on to lead coke as president and cfo from 1981 until he retired in 1993. During that period, revenue rose to 14 billion from 5. 9 billion and the average earnings gain was about 15 annually. Reflecting on his time at the company, don said, i kept my head down.
