Corporate Maverick Prints

'There always seems to be ONE trouble-maker in the company who gets a sick thrill from rebelling against our corporate culture!'

"Oh, Are you still networking?"

'I'm looking for a go-getter, with management experience. I want the new hire to change the way we do business by transforming our organization into a leaner meaner machine. I don't want anything to go into effect until I retire.'

"Let me remind you, Wilkie, the corporate identity, c'est moi!"

I've got to be me.

"Rolled-up sleeves, no coat, loose tie...it's my casual confrontational look."

"We need to think outside the pentangle."

"I'd throw off the bonds of corporate tyranny if only they weren't so appealingly lucrative."

"And we thought you were a team player!"

Should we unleash him and see what happens?

No pushing the envelope, working outside the box...during business hours.

'I need a change in my life. From now on it's all wheeling and no dealing'

'You're developing a reputation as something of a cowboy, Henderson.'

"Nope we aren't worrying about the Procurement Act or compliance really. We hired the best Legal team we could afford instead. I call it Project Parachute..."

The Board of Directors were unsure about Marvin. Somehow, they knew he was the sort of employee who would want to do things differently.

Typical....There's always someone who refuses to fit in!

"Our founder was a hippie before selling out to business."

"How about one-ish? I love the way it sounds."

"Did you all know that Mr. Flowers is a poet? On his own time, of course."

The MBA Draft

Employee won't think about work outside of box

"Delegating authority is good. Delegating blame is better."

'At Tesmer holdings, we don't break the rules! We change them!'

'Tomorrow's special is fish, so wear the flounder suit.'

Elevator Pitch

"The only good news this year, gentlemen, is our massive bonuses."

'I'm not motivated by profit, Henderson - I'm motivated by excessive profit.'

"How's this for transparency: Our product isn't organic but our bullshit advertising it!"

"Amazing! It's the season of me!"

'Excellent job, Fenwick, especially the part where you employ Magic Realism to fudge third-quarter earnings!'

"I appreciate your vision and work ethic but I have a budget. How much would it cost for your vision without work ethics?"

"Did you ask the client about product placement?"

'We need to target the rich and stupid.'

'My market doesn't understand me.'
