The Second-last Corporate Retreat

Eventually, of course, you’ll have to get out of the box. You can’t stay in there forever, like one of those Japanese soldiers who think the war’s still on. You’ve got to come out and mix it up with other people. You are in business. You need people. You don’t have to like them. You don’t even have to treat them like people. But you need them.

What you have to do is come out of the box just when everyone else is going back in. When they are becoming the box. Then you’re free! You’re outside the box, breathing clean air, living large. You own the world. You know why? Because everyone else is inside the box. They think they are boxes! You can do any damn thing you want to. But that’s another seminar. That’s another $6,300 a head. I’ll see you all in Arizona in January.
