Failure and success is often just a line between, a company can look permanent operation, CEO of business mentality. Excellent CEO ready to remind ourselves, the environment may deteriorate as a result of the "Advancement of progress" is not just a slogan.

The success of the enterprise for a while and do not represent sustainable prosperity, a company will fail, but also in a day. According to the United States in the latest issue of the policy and business "magazine, management consultant Alex (JayAlix) and Marshall (juan shall JayMar) help reverse the top 100 enterprises, cumulative years of experience disadvantage, they have raised from pain secondary to five lessons:

"There is no cash no credit" as law, but many managers or company flow without vigilance. For example, a medical equipment company stock price falls, the company's Board of Directors also assume that the company's physical health, cash flow is sufficient, but to assist the reconstruction of management consulting found that the firm cannot pay wages, and banks tightening, make it difficult to survive. This is not a special case.

To avoid this situation, the Board of Directors and management team should have two cash management tools:
