Well, that's sort of my point. He was regarded as an oracle when he was CEO, and even up to today, is still reverently referred to as the best evah. If you read the article, head hunters would poach middle to upper management for years from GE, considering their training the best. They established their own B school/internal training institute that other corporations have emulated, and the experience in those schools is highly respected on resumes. The cancer spread, and it's still out there. Meanwhile, GE imploded to nothing.
So, anyway, little corporate cube dweller at Vail who thought that that zip line did not need manufacturer prescribed maintenance was, most likely, educated in some B school that advocated cost cutting and shareholder value, quarter to quarter, and, whoops, one life lost. He'll probably get a raise if his numbers are good.
