Common Business Traps: Courting Death

This can be the final stage in a company's life, as it has known it. The company declines, the vision is lost, eventually dies.

Part of the problem is how to end things decently and constructively so that you can conceive and create a new future.

Are thoughts like these coming to mind?

Partner meetings are like a tag-team-wrestling match.
