Upon stepping into your new role, you have decided to clean your new office and remove what is not needed. You come across a financial proposal that the previous CFO was working on to purchase or merge with Bayer Pharmaceuticals. You know this is your major competitor which makes you wonder if the old CFO may have been on to the next profitable move.
