About this book
A troubled Shanghai office gives Cappy Ricks a reason to challenge the way his lumber and shipping companies choose their managers. While Mr. Skinner and Matt Peasley weigh experience and age, Cappy insists that courage and initiative matter when a decision must be made far from home. Their arguments turn the office into a place where competing ideas about responsibility are tested through brisk, sometimes comic exchanges.
Peter B. Kyne's short business story brings Bill Peck into this discussion through a carefully arranged Sunday meeting and an errand involving a blue vase. A seemingly small request becomes a measure of a worker's readiness for a larger role. Readers interested in workplace attitudes can follow the story's practical view of motivation, along with its sharp portrait of an employer determined to find someone he can trust with distant business affairs.
