Subject: Excellent post. This is the way to go. No good AD/VP prospect would take the job under the premise that he will move to VP later. Gotta do it up front to get the best candidates.
In reply to: DamnRam 's message, "I like the idea of not using frontal assaults and of giving Frank a graceful way out, but I'm not sure it would be realistic or honorable to expect him to retire from a VP post only a year or two after promoting him to it. That would only delay the reforms that are needed now, and may trivialize the role in the eyes of real prospects for that post. I think a more honorable way for all concerned would be to have Frank retire from his current position (complete with a banquet and toasts), and then give his permanent replacement the VP title (and he can then select his own direct reports, with a one year grace period for current line staff). Let Gray keep the seat warm during the search for the new Athletics VP since he has effective oversight control of the AD anyway. Frank could then be either shifted into the ambassadorial and/or fundraising role immediately, either full-time or part-time." on Wed April 13, 2005 11:18:50
