Why would Kohls hire the ex-CEO of Bed Bath and Beyond to begin with? So he could drive Kohls out of business too?
large shareholders make a shit ton of short term cash when a company goes out of business
Mitt Romney called that "Business Innovation" when he ran and every dumb fuck conservative (these were pre MAGAts) ate that shit up.
"We needa run this cuntry lika bidnass"
Romney, from Bain Capital Management who would use rogue consultants to short and bankrupt Amazon’s competitors? No way lol
In all seriousness, this is viewed as a sign of a risk-taker. Many corporations find themselves stuck and afraid of change, so this can change the direction. It's related to the concept of "move fast and break things".
I have no idea how often this approach works.
Bed business is bad for business
Oh, I remember a while back someone saying Kohl's couldn't do better by their employees. Looks like the can.
Don’t kink shame!
