Two similar stories. One from two centuries ago, and the other present day. In each case the navigator (the management accountant in the present day) knew his equipment was faulty and that he was providing the captain (executive) with bad information on which to base important decisions that would adversely affect a lot of people. Instead of informing the captain (executive) he kept it to himself leading to disaster. Hear the stories as told by Doug Hicks, and how the management accountant could do things differently and become the hero of the story instead of the villain.
