Plot

Avery Bullard, President of the Tredway Corporation has died. But he never named a clear successor, so the Board members must choose a replacement. The most likely is Loren Shaw, a skilled businessman, but some of the others don't like his calculating ways. But to stop him, they'll have to find someone else they can back. Will it be the engineer Don Walling? That will take convincing, they don't trust his youth and idealism. And he isn't even sure he wants the job, he might be happier creating rather than politicking.

Executive Suite is also the name of a hip-hop LP by british group The Wiseguys in 1996

Executive Suite (the game)

Executive Suite is also the name of an adventure/strategy game from 1982. Created by Armonk Corporation. In the game you start off as a mailroom clerk and you are introduced to dilemmas where there is no black and white. Only plenty of grey. Climb the corporate ladder and become the President of the company. The game is now considered abandonware. Links: [The Underdogs entry] [Review and download link]
