The much-admired Harvard Business Review has selected their first novelist to write one of the publication's iconic "Case Studies" -- and, not surprisingly, the author is Joseph Finder.
Finder wrote a fictional scenario (based on his current book, the excellent Power Play) in which a company's CEO has to decide if she should investigate her own company for corruption.
In the printed version of the magazine, they have four business experts comment on the scenario, giving their recommendations. But in the online version, anyone can share their thoughts.
Even if you're not interested in the HBR aspects of the Case Study -- and I'm not -- it's cool to be able to read what is in essence a prequel (the unwritten first chapter) to Finder's book.
It's not that great - there's not one watch reference in it.
