What happened? What went wrong? Those are simple questions to ask when a company experiences difficulty. In Professor Kathryn Harrigan’s Turnaround Management class, students examine case studies to uncover the often complex reasons why a firm got in trouble and to help plot a way back. On this episode of Bizcast, Harrigan, the Henry R. Kravis Professor of Business Leadership, tells us the story of the decisions made by two very different firms – J. Crew, the famous purveyors of preppy clothes, and Smithfield Foods, the world’s largest pork processor – as they coped with shifts in their fortunes amid the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition to discussing the strategies companies take to recover, Harrigan also explains how the class instills a sense of responsibility that future leaders should feel toward their companies.

So the subordinate (i.e., the potentially high potential) makes certain to contribute in a significant way to those two or three outcomes.”“Bosses have a couple of stylistic imperatives which they may not articulate to you.”“So in the first 30 to 90 days, your new boss has already assessed you - 'are you meeting my style?'"Books By Jay CongerThe High Potential’s Advantage: Get Noticed, Impress Your Bosses, and Become a Top Leader by Jay A.
