It's funny when a big exec leaves and other execs are rushing to reassure us they are to to the challenge of dealing with such a key person departing....

We do not care at all. We have zero confidence in any of them and do not care about any of them

We didn't have a CEO for half a year... What changed? Nothing..

Then we got a new CEO.. His new policies caused loss of revenue so we had to fire 50 people..

Thank god for that save

Oh we were similarly "rudderless" when a major executive left.

Adding to the amusement of the constant panic of missing leadership, was when someone asked about simply promoting one of the interim executives to full time and just getting on with it. This was in a town hall with the CEO and the interim executive in question and in front of everyone the CEO said simply that the interim executive wasn't competent enough to do the job.

Quite an effective way to destroy someone's reputation and ego.

What a colleague! Haha!
