Book excerpt: This book reveals in no uncertain terms how a sea of radical changes (kaikaku) initiated by a reckless CEO, untrammelled by a gross negligent advisory board and executed by an utterly incompetent management team can make a company hit the skids with lightning speed. More than 30 real-life examples spell out the sheer magnitude of harm bad managers can cause and how disaster can be prevented with a bit of humility and a dash of common sense. - There is little hope the people in charge of ChOps Ltd. overcome the Mandela effect when reading this book. But if they do it will be a comeuppance they utterly deserve.
