Lessons in Failure: Forget best practices. Here are five of the worst.

Posted by TimSlavin at October 13, 2004

"In classic Greek tragedies, the hero often turns inward, choosing to believe in his eminence despite signs to the contrary. He assumes the decisions that brought him greatness remain valid, and he actively shuts out other people. Meanwhile, his world crumbles around him. It's an age-old lesson but one that modern executives and small-business owners should take to heart: Just because you've made it to the top doesn't guarantee your spot there."

Short effective piece from Inc, a business magazine.
