This is a comical short story detailing a situation in which an employee was to express their true opinion of their employer directly to their employer's face. An idea that most employees share but would never really consider attempting, becomes a reality for the protagonist of this story. Enjoy this interesting journey as you find out what would actually push an employee into doing the unthinkable and what the results would ultimately be. Richard B. Foster's reason for creating short stories: "A lot of people don't have time to read long stories, and honestly, I don't have the time to turn every idea of mine into a long story. There wouldn't be enough time in the world for doing that. The other reason is that sometimes it's just an impulsive move on my part. I get this idea that I really like, and I just want to bring it to life as soon as I can. There have been times that I've come up with an initial idea for a book and already had it for sale within a week. So, whenever an interesting story idea pops into my head, if my laptop is near me, which it almost always is, then I just start typing it up while immersing myself into the story. It's both fun and freeing, because I don't get tied down by any one story. This way, I can bring most of my ideas to life, and that's what I love to do."

In this thriller, discover what happens when a man is caught in the middle of something that is more dark and sinister than his most frightening nightmares could ever be.. Beware the ides. Richard B. Foster's comments on his book: "I don't want to say too much because I don't want to give away the story, but I can tell you that it was inspired by respawning in video games. If you don't know what that is, it's when a character is recreated after they've died. And this can usually happen over and over." Richard B.

Turning conventional wisdom on its head, a Senior Partner and an Innovation Specialist from McKinsey & Company debunk the myth that high-octane, built-to-last companies can continue to excel year after year and reveal the dynamic strategies of discontinuity and creative destruction these corporations must adopt in order to maintain excellence and remain competitive.In striking contrast to such bibles of business literature as In Search of Excellence and Built to Last, Richard N. Foster and Sarah Kaplan draw on research they conducted at McKinsey & Company of more than one thousand corporations in fifteen industries over a thirty-six-year period. The industries they examined included old-economy industries such as pulp and paper and chemicals, and new-economy industries like semiconductors and software. Using this enormous fact base, Foster and Kaplan show that even the best-run and most widely admired companies included in their sample are unable to sustain their market-beating levels of performance for more than ten to fifteen years. Foster and Kaplan's long-term studies of corporate birth, survival, and death in America show that the corporate equivalent of El Dorado, the golden company that continually outperforms the market, has never existed. It is a myth.Corporations operate with management philosophies based on the assumption of continuity; as a result, in the long term, they cannot change or create value at the pace and scale of the markets. Their control processes, the very processes that enable them to survive over the long haul, deaden them to the vital and constant need for change. Proposing a radical new business paradigm, Foster and Kaplan argue that redesigning the corporation to change at the pace and scale of the capital markets rather than merely operate well will require more than simple adjustments. They explain how companies like Johnson and Johnson , Enron, Corning, and GE are overcoming cultural "lock-in" by transforming rather than incrementally improving their companies. They are doing this by creating new businesses, selling off or closing down businesses or divisions whose growth is slowing down, as well as abandoning outdated, ingrown structures and rules and adopting new decision-making processes, control systems, and mental models. Corporations, they argue, must learn to be as dynamic and responsive as the market itself if they are to sustain superior returns and thrive over the long term.In a book that is sure to shake the business world to its foundations, Creative Destruction, like Re-Engineering the Corporation before it, offers a new paradigm that will change the way we think about business.
