Useless Emergency Measures
by Anne Engelen
A lifelong partnership
The deal of her life
Based on love, trust and respect
She gladly became his wife
Board meetings at the kitchen table
As equal partners
They were able to discuss and work through
whatever problem would occur
Managing this company of two
Didnt seem too hard to do
So Expansion was due
And soon their name changed to
Company & Son
New regulations and new rules
A whole new ball game
Face it
Management is not for fools
Their job contents had altered
Their sense of responsibilities faltered
Each partner on its own paid a price
for how their company had grown
Board meetings were skipped
Partners went their own way
The company went down
Needless to say
So a crisismanager got consulted
To pick her brains for new ways
To keep this company running
Do you want to know whats most stunning?
All her knowledge came from books
But practically??
Oh well....Shucks!
So....the company went down the drain
End of partnership
End of game
