Electric lights, fancy hotels, new theaters, trolleys, and automobiles were changing how people traveled, did business, worshiped, and enjoyed themselves.

All these consultants are peddling the same tired old solutions to a problem that never seems to go away.” I had started three companies and knew exactly what these CEOs were talking about.
