A satire of big business and all it holds sacred, the musical follows the rise of Pierrepont Finch, who uses a little handbook, "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying," to climb the corporate ladder from lowly window washer to high-powered executive. He tackles such familiar but potent dangers as the aggressively compliant "company man," the whiny nephew of the boss, the office party, back-stabbing co-workers, caffeine addiction and, of course, true love.
