To all you future businessmen and women, the hit musical on Broadway How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying is something to consider watching. The protagonist, J. Pierrepont Finch (Daniel Radcliffe), starts out at the bottom of the World-Wide Wicket Company as a window cleaner. Aiming high, Finch follows the book “How to Succeed in Business” in hopes to reach the top of the company. Upon reaching the top as Vice President of advertising, Finch’s business practices become questionable in morality, possibly threatening his career.
This musical tells the tale many men/women in business, or even in life in general, aim for – becoming successful. Along this journey to success, people come across obstacles that confront their morals and conscious. “Do you go against your ideals to reach a higher point in life?” is something I ask myself as a reminder that one stray decision could change my life for the worse in a flash. So, if you’re aiming high in business, or just in life, I recommend this musical to you.
