[QUOTE="COJacket, post: 253610, member: 67"] Totally agree with the business analogy. What I hear through the grapevine is that CPJ does get this to a large extent. He has tried to influence the CEO and the Board (President and AD and staff) and there has not been alignment on direction of the football team to a large extent. CPJ is like a President of one business unit within the total organization and he must influence the CEO/Board about his vision of the program. Where I am from in the business world, we believe that [I]direction[/I] must be set to create [I]alignment[/I] around it and only then can [I]commitment[/I] on all levels be established. I am pretty sure that if CPJ had his "direction" adopted by the total organization, then we would see a few more changes. Not unlike when he finally was able to get his recruiting exceptions up to 20% (? or is it more now?). Agree with your analogy 110%, and just like in any organization, alignment has to happen on all levels to be totally effective. But at the end of the day, direction is finally set from the very top. In my job, I have seen many BU Presidents not get what they want or need to execute because the CEO and Board did not think the same way. [/QUOTE]
