"Change or die" is the mantra of modern business consultants.

Over the past 75 years, Yellowstone Electric Co. http://www.yellowstoneelectric.com/ has evolved from one electrician installing street lights to wiring homes, industrial plants and some of Billings’ tallest office buildings, including the Crowne Plaza and First Interstate Bank.

A decade ago, the company left its comfort zone again by moving into hydro-electric projects while competitors chiefly pursued wind, natural gas, oil and coal opportunities.
