Football Department Review

[Baggers]

It also begs the question Baggers, if you have such a mindset for change, how could you have possibly sat on that board for 9 years !?
I would have been able to muster no more than 6 months at best personally !

You're right to assume I am not a change averse kind of human.

However, there are always imperative considerations first. 1) Is the proposed change necessary, ie, does it address a failure? 2) Is the person, company, review or Board competent to institute the change or changes and see them through to implementation and beyond? All change needs tweaking. 3) Will the ramifications from the change be thoroughly thought through with all possible scenarios (legal, HR etc.) comprehensively addressed and considered. 4) Does said change have buy-in/commitment from the 'top?' 5) Will the delivery of the change be respectful of all involved. 6) Will the rationale for the change be explained thoroughly to those impacted. 7) Will there be appropriate publicity to 'sell' the change to all appropriate stake-holders and beyond? 8) Will there be a detailed assessment of the change, say, 6 months later?

I made these up on the hop and may have missed an important step or two. Just couldn't be bothered going back over my 'old' Chairman / CEO notes... and those when I was later a consultant. Ah, them thar the days!
