Explore the significance of establishing routines and a strong company culture to navigate change successfully, while recognizing the dangers of rigidity and risk aversion both on a large scale and individual level, as illustrated through Coca-Cola's 1999 crisis in Belgium.
On today’s episode, Clay is joined by David Fagan to discuss Don Keough’s book, The Ten Commandments of Business Failure.
Don Keough was the President and COO of Coca-Cola. During Keough’s and Roberto Goizueta’s leadership, Coca-Cola’s stock compounded at 27% per annum from 1981 through 1997.
David Fagan serves as the managing partner at MBF Chartered Professional Accountants, a firm dedicated to supporting small and medium-sized owner-managed businesses across Canada.
