Common sense is not a requirement to be a CEO ? LOL
I have seen it a couple times. Every time a CEO or new exec VP comes in they always want to make a statement and start changing things adding their own touch. 9 times out of 10 it fails.
I am living through one now. Our new Product/Marketing VP (6 months) is trying to extend her influence over the Engineering team and dictate what tools we need to use to produce the platform and how to implement stuff. She doesn’t know crap about software, but she is a shiny ball drone and is pushing crap she reads about online. I don’t see her lasting very long.
Or president of the US
Chicks in charge; go figure.
