Actually flop, yes. That's exactly how it works.

I'll quote Anne Fisher, who for many years studied this actual subject flop, and provide commentary by an experienced operator who walked the walk (who references Anne). Now, I'm sure post reading, you'll suggest you are more knowledgeable on the subject matter flop, and point out where she's wrong, but that will just highlight your ignorance more (and note the statistics of failure flop, when these best practices aren't put into action - and could possibly be why the previous CEO's all failed flop):

If this is your first day on the job as a new CEO and you haven't developed your 100-day plan, you are already well behind the curve and at risk of becoming what Anne Fisher describes in her book, New Job? Get a Headstart Now, as the 40 percent of new CEOs who fail within the first 18 months. Your first day should be preceded by research and conversations with board members, key staff, stakeholders, and the previous CEO. Your first day starts when you accept the job, not when you show up in the office.

So flop, I hope you see where I was coming from. Disagree, dislike, whatever you want flop, these aren't my words. They are from a student of study and experience on the subject matter flop. So do your best.

I reiterate, despite the dribble in this thread, Mestrov should, and would have been all over this PRIOR to day one of sitting behind his physical desk. AND, he should have addressed the matter PRIOR to it coming to ahead (Des said management knew about the jerseys). If he had NO prior knowledge flop, then he isn't coming into the role prepared.

Yes disgraceful. What a flop.

Mestrov may have the credentials to be a very good CEO.

@mave on the other hand, and those making round-about smart arsed comments, like "has he done this yet" etc, or "he's a flop" by parroting others comments most certainly are flops

Mate what people were saying is he can’t have come forward and commented on the situation before formally starting, that’s not appropriate. No one is arguing that he would have been all over what was going on and most likely had a strong view on what he plans to do. It’s just the public comment on behalf of the club bit.

That's fine - disagree with me, but when they were taking the piss and making fun of me (smart arsed comments - called a wanker by the flop), when I know them to be wrong is an absolute fallacy (and people have been messaging me and agreeing with me - I just wish they'd call them out openly).

Sorry about this long(ish) response, but I have personal first hand experience (and this is ONE example of MANY I could give):

In my past job, I used to test / quantify Business Plans (including cashflows), franchise agreements and the like. I had a business Director (owner admittedly), who was acquiring his 3rd franchise from a very well known food / restaurant chain on the northern beaches.

In my assessment, I noticed the costs & gross margins on the actual food was quite different to the Franchise mainframes / estimates provided (in the franchise agreement). So the purchaser (my customer) asked the existing owner what the difference was.

The answer was that because the business was struggling, they acquired their ingredients through cheaper wholesalers, which was actually in conflict with the franchise agreement terms and conditions (meaning the franchisor could cancel the agreement at any time if they cottoned on - there could be huge brand damage there).

Therefore, 6 months prior to entering into the business as the new CEO / Owner, my customer demanded that the business as a whole refrain from acquiring stock through unacceptable sources, and revert to the franchise agreement for approved suppliers, because when people buy food from this outlet, it needed to be uniformly the same as if they went to any other store of the same name in Australia. Not doing so, would and could affect their entire reputation and brand.

Anyways, if people tell you that's different, it's NOT. Something was occuring in an existing business that may have a detrimental affect on the brand, so the incoming CEO stepped forward - 6 months prior to taking the chair and forced change, to mitigate any potential problem.

I have keenly awaited your response to the reply to your troll post - but saw nothing
I am surprised by your silence on the reply to this position you put forward.

It is unlike you to throw a **** bomb, and then when totally shown up to go silent. Normally you would try to manipulate replies and reset the conversation. Surely a man of your immense stature in the world of business would do @AndWeDon'tCare the honour of your acknowledgement of his astute response which addresses every part of your concern. They would no doubt immediately add that to their CV and Linkedin profile - after all while you don't know the Wiggles line up - you know everything to do with the world of business

Replied above. You have been measured, countered, then proven wrong. You're welcome. I hope you feel a little embarrassed at your verbose, and repugnance here. Next time, consider your replies before calling someone out on their experiences and knowledge. @XV-1 , @mave & yourself went full feral with your inane smart arse comments here (look at that grub maves comments throughout).

I would have replied sooner, but my emotion wanted me to just abuse you, so I gave it a few days, so I could calm down, and pull apart your ridiculous stance in a measured fashion.

That said, the gloves are off now. You (or anyone) want to call someone & be smart arses (and go in on them), watch out, because you'll be pulled apart very quickly in reply.

Cheers.

The gloves are off. Look out guys.
Lmao.

Whatever flop. Your argument has been shown to not only be incorrect, but SO incorrect that it's a primary reason why 40% of CEO's fail in their first 18 months - hahaha

And you were bagging me for suggesting it flop !!

I've now shown you a live PERSONAL example as well, flop. Maybe think before you abuse. You look pretty dumb now, huh flop.

In the post you quoted I just asked for you to acknowledge the response from AWDC to your question about length of time it took to appoint Mestrov. A well considered and astute post that addressed all your perceived or insinuated concerns.

Of course you are reframing this to suit your narrative, you are a hero and superior in all realms. We are inferior to you and your amazing intellect is far too much for the average person to wrestle with

You do you though - the thread history shows the true discussion.

And for all your professed intelligence I am sure you have no idea about the irony of your post

I don’t know to much about Mestrov other than what I have read online, hoping he brings a strong discipline to the club and a culture of the club first and foremost.

He has a huge challenge in front of him and hopefully he can be part of the next premiership for the club.

Firstly, his name is Mestrov, not Mesteov. One would assume you'd know who you were actually defending so vigorously.

Secondly, my reply to flop was validation of AWDC's response (despite not being addressed to AWDC) His commentary was about timing, and that commentary was debunked by my (nay, the professionals who study this subject) reply there.

Saying any reply I provide is reframing the topic to suit my needs is possibly the stupidest thing I've read on the internet in 2022, because that's what a debate / argument is dumb dumb.

You pathetic morons laughed and ridiculed my take on the situation, then attempted to double down by belittling my experience directly in that field, hence my response.

Now, back onto the topic at hand. You and the others in your unwashed herd have been shown that despite your verbose, abuse, name calling (yes, I'm now replying in kind), you're consideration that my comments were inappropriate you are completely wrong - as supported by the specialists in this topic, including statistics.

Quoting people way more informed than you and I (people who lecture and coach on the topic) is not reframing hahaha, so nice try.

End of the day, you are wrong, I am right, I've proven that to you sheep with direct commentary. Be a man, and own it. You've even been given direct examples. You're competing with flop here haha

EDIT: Try using my and I in your replies. Using the words us and we is a bullying tactic to isolate and show belligerence. Be independent. Be a leader flop2. Don't be a follower and sheep. Speak for yourself. Talking on behalf of a group is a sign of weakness

Thankyou - I corrected the simple typo of Mesteov to Mestrov. You may note on the keyboard the ‘e’ and ‘r’ are next to each other. Sometimes a small key stroke error occurs, a man of your immense ability surely wouldn’t lower themselves to a typo call out.

You have proven that you have a personality problem in which you believe you are the only one that can be correct. And you by reply show you feel everyone to be beneath you.

Meanwhile you lower yourself to a base level with “flop” “imbecile” “dumb dumb” you try to put yourself on a pedestal and debase yourself in the same post.

People that act this way on a largely anonymous forum double down in their personal life. I hope you get the help you need

And by edit - your response about where someone buys produce did nothing to address the response from AWDC - you know that and just continue to reframe.

Hahaha, and the cycle continues, hey? It was okay when you lot were going all in on one person (of which I've received PM's about from others).

You were so adamant you were right that the belittling (now moved into implying I apparently believe I'm smarter than anyone to garner support) started flowing from a number of you, as though my comments were outLANDISH.

Hahaha

Oh how wrong you guys have proven to be.

And who wouldn't defend themselves when their experience in their occupational field was being questioned / belittled.

I'll simplify this for you flop2. You, XV-1, and flop(OG) thought you'd work together to defeat a common foe. You placed your draw four down, flop placed his draw four down, XV-1, placed his draw four down, and you all giggled like school children thinking I was about to draw 12 cards.

The problem for you three, is I also had a draw four in my hand, and I went out, leaving you with 16 cards to draw, and all three of you with a a handful of cards.

And some would say that's poetic justice. The one defeated the many, with use of facts and experience , and you're all now throwing a tantrum , recycling and rehashing , or using memes to continue to try and gather the momentum of support - for example the passive aggressive - I hope you're okay comments. Haha.

Again, be a man, and admit I've made a good point, and supported it with proven facts that made.your earlier belittling and arrogance appear pretty . Well.....dumb haha
 
Sometimes in your life you need to back down - I can see over the years you never do

I honestly worry about you and your family

Don't waste your energy , my wife actually laughed at the flop comments.

And why wouldn't "you" back down given you've been proven wrong on the subject matter? Are you too proud or stubborn to concede a point ?

Anyways, I hope you, flop, and XV-1 have learnt from this, and in future don't go all in on someone when you aren't 100% across the subject you are laughing and bagging them about.

I'm sorry you came up against someone willing to call you, flop and XV-1 out on your BS, and prove you wrong.

Put him on ‘Ignore’.
 
Put him on ‘Ignore’.

Ignore function is for pussies, and weak of mind hahaha. Toughen up is all I'll say.

I'm betting, and like I said, received messages along the lines that people enjoyed watching me prove them wrong!!

We can move along now..
