The 1942 film, Casablanca, is one of the most loved films in history. Humphrey Bogart’s character, Rick is a cynical American expat and club owner, while Claude Rains is the corrupt Captain Louis Renault. Cooperation is not what either had in mind in this scene, but when the police arrive after Rick shoots Major Strasser dead, Louis decides to be of service to Rick by telling the arriving policemen to “round up the usual suspects.” What was so important to Rick that he would resort to murdering a Nazi officer in the Vichy-controlled city of Casablanca? Only overcoming his own bitterness and helping his ex-lover and her husband escape the Nazis. As the movie closes, it seems both Rick and Louis may be headed toward friendship and even greater service in rebelling against the Nazis. Helping people is part of our nature, despite what some narratives would have you think, says Neal Woodson. His most recent book explores compassion, the true nature of service, and how they are critical to building great businesses.
