My company announced leadership changes, 4 days before a total solar eclipse... Not at all a coincident.
Our new CEO-to-be commented: "This is my last promotion. No more promotion for me."
Some words from our current CEO were noteworthy:
- We always have a plan for everything.
- We need to understand what the brief is, what actions to take, and then execute [on 2021].
- As you go higher in the company, you do less work and rely more on others to do the work for you.
While I certainly will miss the current CEO, I'm more of a fan of the CEO-to-be, whose sense of humor and simple words have won me over since 4 years ago.
This and many other events have allowed me to peek into how a large corporation works.
After the great mutation, I'm hopeful for 2021, a new year, new era. Changes are good.
