I received an email, same as all you, asking for ideas. A similar email was sent by Hans. I also gave sincere feedback during Pulse. Multiple submissions in Ideas at Work.
For over a decade, I have tenured ideas. Also for over a decade, I have cautioned leadership regarding the clear missteps that they were making. It was tempered at first, but was amplified when Hans was hired. There were many red flags.
"The plan will be presented to the board for them to approve.". Yes, that's how corporations work. Hans did the same, and how did that work out? The signs of the impending failure were obvious.
So the root of the issue are those that do the hiring of the CEO. The board needs flipped.
