Carrie Wagner: Climbing the Corporate Ladder (C) – Cut the Cord? Harvard Case Solution & Analysis

This three-section case traces Carrie Wagner's career within a, big international package delivery business over a 30-year period during which she rose through the ranks from a pupil's summer job to senior executive positions. Part (C) - Cutting the Cord? The case describes the challenges of how she finds it tough to work in an advisory function that is disconnected from operations and the new place for Carrie. After five years in this position, she becomes aware of an opportunity outside the business that piques her interest.

This chance, joined with several other concerns, including professional as well personal factors, lead Carrie to wonder whether she shouldn't give up on a potential VP position and ""cut the cord"" with the firm where she's worked for 30 years.
