Why did he Quit?

Campbell the Essendon bloke taking his Job?

Why did he Quit?

Some CEOs only like to stay in these positions for 5 years or so and then move on.

Maybe Eddie will apply

Some CEOs only like to stay in these positions for 5 years or so and then move on.

And 24 hours is enough for others.

Doesn't matter now that I never remembered his name.

 

[PIEWITHSAUCE]

Nice guy from all accounts but never left any sort of impression on me one way or the other , so can't say I am too fussed. I think we can probably do better (no pun intended)

 

[peter9789]

The last of those involved in the mismanagement of the salary cap now gone out the door. Apart form this thought he did a fair job.

There will be plenty of strong candidates out there in CEO land that would love the job

I liked he was very much a behind the scenes operator. My impression of him is that he was quite good, although the only piece of work i could point at is his letter to the members after that trade period. On the whole liked him more than gary "sieve" pert, but don't know that's a huge endorsement. Hope whoever we get next is good.

This right here is why he made such a fantastic CEO! It’s your football staff you want front of mind and this guy is going to be tough to replace.

This could just be your typical career-progression move, most senior executives work off a 5 year plan or similar that follows a pretty standard set of phases which roughly align with the following:

Review
Plan / Restructure (expand or contract)
Implement
Consolidate (BAU)
Reflect

Once they get to the final phase in the cycle their thoughts are already turning to the next role.

I'd guess this would especially be the case at a high profile sporting club, but it's a fairly common thing in corporate circles.

Simon Brookhouse at TAS Jack Jumpers is a highly rated CEO

I’m not ruling Campbell out, but the quote to headline the tweet was from Healy who’s about as reliable as Tom Browne. Campbell would be a reversion to the Pert days.

 

[regpies]

Was he a strong supporter of the previous board? As in he wasn’t behind Browne and co?

Might be a reason he is gone.

I don’t know much about this Campbell guy, but as a matter of principle we should avoid anything tarnished by Essendon.

I mean, what have they got right over the last 20 years?

 

[Looney]

Maybe Eddie will apply

I'm not even joking. Why can't we get Eddie back?

 

[Peter Sidorkiewicz]

I'm not even joking. Why can't we get Eddie back?

Because he is a racist and was forced to resign his presidency

 

[Fat Jesus]

I'm not even joking. Why can't we get Eddie back?

A really bad idea as he has become a control freak. He had his fair share of time. Someone new and fresh.

 

[Go Pies!!!!!]

quote from someone who gives me very good info “the replacement will be a surprise to everyone“

Because he is a racist and was forced to resign his presidency

How is Eddie a racist?

Ease up Peter.
