I'm sorry Ladies and Gentlemen, unless the Board is changed, starting with the Chairman, they will hire another CEO exactly like Mr. Walsh.
Don't you understand the irony of a "people oriented" business being chaired by the former Chairman of a Tobacco company?
What does that tell you about the mindset of the Board?
What does that tell you about the people they will approve of in senior management roles?
I'm sorry, but it is not rocket science.
