安德鲁·卡内基《安德鲁·卡内基自传》· Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie · 领导

In addition to the embarrassment of my friends Mr. Scott, Mr. Thomson, and others, there came upon us later an even severer trial in the discovery that our partner, Mr. Andrew Kloman, had been led by a party of speculative people into the Escanaba Iron Company. He was assured that the concern was to be made a stock company, but before this was done his colleagues had succeeded in creating an enormous amount of liabilities--about seven hundred thousand dollars. There was nothing but bankruptcy as a means of reinstating Mr. Kloman.

白话

核心是:合伙人私自对外投资,可能把整个公司拖入破产。卡内基的朋友斯科特先生、汤姆森先生等人陷入困境后,又发现合伙人安德鲁·克洛曼被一群投机者拉进了埃斯卡纳巴铁矿公司。他们告诉克洛曼这家公司要改成股份公司,但还没改,他的同伙就已经制造了约七十万美元的巨额债务。要让克洛曼摆脱困境,除了破产别无他法。这说明:合伙人的个人冒险行为会波及全体,必须提前防范,明确禁止未经告知的对外投资和担保。
