As a result, a digital Educator Copy of the case isn't accessible through this web site. Ashdown's "increase" strategy called for Mustafa Khalaf to leave his job as Chief Operating Officer (COO) of Ashdown Contracting, and to focus his attention on the growth of another business entity, Ashdown Pipeline, where Ashdown considered the greatest possibility for the future existed.
It appeared odd to Mustafa that finding a financial partner capable of providing tens even hundreds, of millions of dollars to reshape an industry was proving to be remarkably easy, while finding a single individual capable of replacing him in his old job was proving to be unusually challenging. Mustafa's mind wandered back to the challenge which he had been grappling with for many months: the way to find his replacement as COO at Ashdown Contracting as he flagged down a taxi.
