Cons

- Senior management lacks leadership skills on developing, communicating a strategic operating plan to team members. - Senior management's success measurements of long-established slow growth business units entirely misaligned with fostering incubation startups for new innovation and growth opportunities, over multiple years: near-term sales $ vs. new customer betas for building out new 1.0 solutions. Very tough for team morale and employee satisfaction.
