We often say that some lessons must be learned "the hard way" meaning they must be lived to really sink in. But do all our lessons really need to be learned this way? Certainly not in business. In this debut work, former public corporation senior executive John Samuels describes the many lessons he's learned throughout his career in thirty-four short stories of corporate politics, intrique, and craziness. While most of the tales contain zany twists, surprises, or some over-the-top corporate nonsense, there is a certain nastiness that seems to pervade his experiences in the four U.S. public Corporations which he amalgamates into fictional Opaque Corporation. As we follow Samuels from one disastrous situation to another, he points out the little epiphanies that occurred to him along the way. By the end of the thirty-four chapters, the reader will have gathered more than 150 of these gems. By studying these various stories, the author hopes to spare his readers a few of these same mistakes and experiences.
