I was also told flat out I'm on the short list of replacements for running the division, when the time comes. All of that is very good.
But the situation I'm going into is, not mincing words, really ******* tough. The Director of Manufacturing had a year with this problem and only scratched the surface, so I have no illusions here - this could be the first time I really fail in this org. I've never run this dept, and the dept has some of the lowest performers in the entire organization. I may have to go in and really clean house. Probably 6 months minimum before I can start to breathe again, and that's if this goes well.
So if I'm unemployed in a year, I may hit you up for a place on your couch  lol |
It will be rough no doubt and you will be successful because you have always been successful. Just keep doing what you have always done. Set the expectations and be unapologetic. I let everyone know from the start what I expect. I only ask two things of them there trust and respect. I am here to make things the best they can be for the company and all of you and you have three options, get on my train, get off my train or be run over by it. The choice is theirs!
