Donald Trump is known for running a "gentleman's club" style boardroom. There are many reports of temper flares and verbal throw downs on a regular basis in the presence and from The Donald. I found it interesting that Donald Trump chose to play off his unabashed love for machismo dynamic so much in allowing the trouncing of David Cassidy during the boardroom meeting. It was fascinating that with all the American media focus on anti-bullying and suicide prevention, that the reality of the American executive boardroom power play was allowed to be aired so unfiltered. Bravo to The Donald for showing that to be successful in the business world, you must have a "Backbone" and not whine and complain about the shortcomings of others. Yes, the American version of The Apprentice is very, well "Americanized" but you cannot really expect anything different. The Donald has once again illustrated his superb ability to know what "works" and what doesn't work in "Corporate America" today. The boardroom is a nasty place and thankfully has been portrayed as such without rose tinted lens.
