Yeah...it's true. It's pretty darned hard to be a principled
conservative in today's corporate world. In fact, it more or less
can get you fired. In nearly 20 years seeking the "perfect-storm"
of merit, principle, dedication, faith, fact, truth,
right-is-good-and-wrong-is-just-wrong governed by general honesty
in the modern day Corporate America I am sorry to break it to you;
it just doesn't exist. This book will chronicle real events that
have happened in Corporate America; the good, the bad, the
downright shocking and frankly the very frightening state of
affairs of what the "Everybody-Gets-A-Ribbon" liberal movement and
the Political Correctness nonsense have done to business. If you
wanted to get work done, promote someone, fire someone, move
someone, pray for someone, expose someone and generally cut through
the office political goo in the Corporate environment consider
yourself forewarned that the rules of the game have
changed.dramatically. Kathleen Kelly is a 20-year veteran of the
corporate circus holding down very senior and not-so-senior roles
at some of the nation's biggest companies (and some of the
smallest, never-heard-of, probably-out-of-business-by-now companies
too). Born and raised on the east coast, Kelly spends much of her
time ducking "emotional, feel-good grenades" hurled by liberal
counterparts and spends free time "building consensus" in target
practice at the gun range by working on her groupings. She is proud
of her plebian "State University Degree" and has sworn to never
utter "B-school" in conversation again. The self-described
"political freak" and her equally armed spouse live in a great city
in the greatest country in the world raising two future "Evil
Republicans" who will no doubt skip the corporate circus and follow
their parents into Entrepreneurship. In her spare time Kelly is a
busy writer, political mouthpiece, and speeding-ticket-collector
along with cooking up some legendary desserts.
