Michael Hammer passes away
Another good man passes on.
“I’m saddened and offended by the idea that companies exist to enrich their owners… That is the very least of their roles; they are far more worthy, more honorable, and more important than that. Without the vital creative force of business, our world would be impoverished beyond reckoning.” – Michael Hammer, as quoted by the New York Times
