I mean the good news is it seems like management has gotten better across the board (nobody talked about empathy even ten years ago). So that’s good.
Someone in our company slack posted this re: Katzenberg too: https://collider.com/jeffrey-katzenberg-disney-renaissance-i...
It’s just interesting how our former leaders might be seen in new light (but yeah not to take away from the solid wins they did have and I think it’s awesome she remembered people’s names and details - the average CEO in the generation before would’ve been hard pressed to do that). Perhaps it’s good that the bar gets higher and higher.
And yeah, I don't think any of us want that. It's fascinating though how we (not the OP, but perhaps myself and others) so easily jump on the criticism bandwagon for Marissa Mayer, Ellen Pao or now Meg Whitman. I don't think we do that for male CEOs as much.
Anyway, just noting it for those reading this later. Poor choice in wording in the above (I actually love my dog a lot - but the wording probably comes off as insensitive). Which was not the intention, but a good learning moment for me.
But I'm saying she does at least have some wins on her track record to justify hiring her.
