Svantaggi
This small organization lacks strong executive leadership and has an exclusionary culture that endorses nepotism and cronyism. New employees often find it difficult to assimilate or to navigate the corporate landscape.
One corporate officer in particular has reached her position as a reward for remaining with the company for many years. She is dedicated and enthusiastic, but her self-importance and unapproachable demeanor reflect a 'manage by intimidation' style. She fails to understand current management theories, business practices and trends that fall within her realm of responsibilities. She would benefit by extensive formal training in executive leadership and communications, and by keeping up to date in the areas under her management.
The company seems to have high turnover in sales and marketing.
