Nike promoted incorrectly. The people in senior director and junior vp roles here do not represent what Phil’s vision.
They are nasty cutthroat in it for themselves types. I know a recently promoted director to senior director who has never built a strategy and has a history of absenteeism. Yet the vp of the department was too disconnected to know that and promoted him. The guy is widely thought of as a clown. It just demoralizes everyone.
So in the freestyle environment and following this guys lead people have just stopped showing up.
This is the new Nike.
