Samenvatting:

American business people say the darndest things – especially when they’re under pressure, under scrutiny, trying to express or trying to impress. Corporate PowerLines™ is the ultimate collection of the shockingly funny things American business people are slaying...er...saying to investors, board members, senior staff and the rank and file. This is the real stuff, uttered by real-life CEOs, CFOs, CMOs and regular schmoes.

Bob Ference and Mike Friend have spent 25 years collecting the most eye-opening, jaw-dropping PowerLines – quips that were meant to inspire, illustrate and illuminate – but instead, left us in the dark saying, “Huh?” In some cases, we shook our heads. In most cases, we shook with laughter.

So grab a cup of cold coffee, cozy up in your cubicle and fire up your e-reader. With every PowerLine, you’ll get a sense of American corporate culture, the org chart caste system, job pressures and the new reality of working 24/7.
