Everybody knows those magic circle firms are always looking for ways to take over the world. It’s therefore not surprising to learn that Allen & Overy has hired new marketing director Partha Bose.
Tulkinghorn can reveal that Bose actually received the offer not just for his marketing skills, but because he has recently published a book entitled Alexander the Great’s Art of Strategy. Rumours that the management board received free copies with relevant highlighted passages are as yet unsubstantiated. One source, though, claims that David Morley has been seen in the partners’ dining room carefully studying Chapter Three, ‘The Men Who Could Be King’, and Chapter Four, ‘Setting The Tone Of His Reign’.
