When Charney filed for bankruptcy it was because American Apparel was suffering from a lack of one thing: efficiency.

Directors Want Better Boards - And Rightly So
One of the many issues we identify is when Board Chairs and CEO's take the lead in areas in which they don't have the strengths or skills to justify taking the lead.

One salesperson had difficulty coming up with anything of substance. It turned out that he was new to sales and when we assessed him two months earlier, our assessment indicated that he was not trainable.
