Vantaggi
The travel piece is fun. We get to meet great fans in every locale and they appreciate what we bring.. The non-managerial level staff, for the most part,supports one another. A couple of managers, who have recently had their hands tied, still care about lower level employees.
Svantaggi
Neither the CEO nor the COO have a lick of experience in this genre. Worse yet, the Chairman of he Board, who is really running the company, is arrogant and refuses to listen to anyone. Presenting hard-core facts to support your position is an utter waste of time. He ignores it. The phrase "We're doing ti because Paul wants it" is now the motto. The CEO is clearly disengaged with the staff. The COO is just a blowhard. His opinion changes with the audience. The financials have to be in the toilet given all the consultants they've hired. The VP of Logistics, and the CFO, both brought in by the new team, quit within one week of another. They were voices of reason and not yes-men. .
