My friend was fairly high up at Starbucks and was one among many to leave from the team they were on due to a lot of people who lacked leadership skills being put in leadership positions. Not every intelligent person makes a good leader.

whatchu tryna say about the McBain Consulting Group???

The WSJ article was interesting. Included commentary on his management style.

Sounds a little like Indra. She lasted a lot longer but had such a hard time driving growth.

Just sharing! Landed in offer at AWS over five weeks ago and still waiting on a visa transfer update from US CIS. So many work updates from other folks in these five weeks moving in and out while I am unable to share an update with my folks or celebrate in anticipation of the final approval of the petition. Trying to stay calm and collected, but sometimes it takes a toll
