Watching MW on the news as the opening act is silly

Single point of accountability / er failure…
Mark Nelson’s left eye blinks slower and longer.
A new CEO was hired to take over a struggling company. The CEO who was stepping down met with him privately and presented him with three numbered envelopes. “Open these if you run into serious trouble,” he said.
Well, three months later sales and profits were still way down and the new CEO was catching a lot of heat. He began to panic but then he remembered the envelopes. He went to his drawer and took out the first envelope. The message read, “Blame your predecessor.” The new CEO called a press conference and explained that the previous CEO had left him with a real mess and it was taking a bit longer to clean it up than expected, but everything was on the right track. Satisfied with his comments, the press – and Wall Street – responded positively.
Another quarter went by and the company continued to struggle. Having learned from his previous experience, the CEO quickly opened the second envelope. The message read, “Reorganize.” So he fired key people, consolidated divisions and cut costs everywhere he could. This he did and Wall Street, and the press, applauded his efforts.
Three months passed and the company was still short on sales and profits. The CEO would have to figure out how to get through another tough earnings call. The CEO went to his office, closed the door and opened the third envelope. The message said, “Prepare three envelopes.”
HAHAHA AI and data will drill the wells.
Impressive performance…but dust off that CV
So we beat plan, but we’re not good enough? So who created the plan?
Mark Nelson, we can do your work without you and you’ve told us…. lol
The competitive advantage started eroding in 2018. Isn’t that the year MW took over?
I have nothing against Eimeear as a persob but her voice and accent is just incredible annoying to my auditory senses..It's like fingernails against a blackboard...Hope she's able to work on this in the future.
We all do better when we win?
TY for explaining why being competitive is important…
Why does she look like a bot from Westworld??
I'll take MW over EB all day long. We’re doomed.
EB looks like a AI robot model
We must be direct. Now we will beat around the bush for the next hour.
"Our people are the best in the industry, and I wouldn't trade them for anything." -MW
(Wouldn't trade them for anything, unless it's for offshoring talent)
We must lean into AI (by outsourcing everything to another Indian ). Honestly, he looks like he got hair implants cuz I don’t see the bald spot anymore.
Notice the target/bullseye on the "simplify our organizational structure"?
Wouldn’t trade our culture for anybody else’s…except India’s
steep up or steep away lol.
How and where the work gets done. Stay tuned for this comment.
who let the dogs out...ugh
“Better than the best”
yet benchmark at the 50% tile… make it make sense Mike.
MW predictable hand movements are predictable
You can tell when he shifted from extemporaneous to scripted because he stopped saying uh every 3 words. He’s literally reading this part.
