The last decision that anyone wants to make is deciding the best way top say "I blew it." Politicians have found solace in the non-apologetic phrase: "mistakes were made". (An idiom that political commentator William Schneider suggested was in the "past exonerative" tense.) But when facing a board of directors, partners, stakeholders or employees - not to mention the nice folks at the IRS, SEC or other such agencies - rhetorical sleight of hand is a flaccid strategy. My guests for a two part series done exclusively for Profitability Channel know a thing or two about classic business blunders: How to prevent them from happening, identifying them before they become fatal and even overcoming the damage they leave behind.

With clients like Bank of America, CitiCorp Credit Services, Inc., Interstate/Johnson Lane, Inc., the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission and many more they are the triage specialists of the business world.
