Features: I have worked in American companies for decades, witnessing the destruction caused by inflation, foreign competition, oil embargoes, declining productivity, and the 1989 stock market crash. This was the greatest period of capital expansion in world history, accompanied by significant currency fluctuations, a surge in consumerism, the burst of the internet bubble, and a struggling exploration of global economic boundaries. Successful businesses have withstood all the challenges brought about by these market phenomena, endured most of the remedies prescribed by corporate quacks, and survived. They continue to thrive to this day, appropriately proving their resilience and elasticity. The good news is that these survival skills are transferable, learnable, and actionable, and can be applied to the challenges you face throughout your life. There is much to be learned from corporate practices. Companies are well-thought-out in terms of productivity, resource utilization, and planning, while most of us are still searching for ways to improve in these areas. We must acknowledge that companies face the same world as we do, and more successful companies have developed effective response strategies, which those who want to improve their fortunes can also adopt. In this book, I will review the discoveries made by successful companies through painful experiences and explain how to leverage their experiences to enhance myself.
