I don't buy this argument very much.
Higher ups are responsible for the company. You can blame consultants all you want but the board is still going to want heads to roll if you're underperforming.
- lotsofpulp 4y agoThe plausible deniability does not have to be just from shareholders. It can also be from the courts, or even other employees in the company. Also, the plausible deniability is for the person in the company doing the head rolling, so that they do not get caught up in it. Of course, some things can get so big that board members and CEO can get caught up in it, but not always.
