A Grandiose Vision

“I worked for several years at a top insurance company, leading digital, and generating flawless results. The CMO moved on, and they replaced him. The new guy possessed a grandiose vision that included hiring his own leaders. He hired a bunch of nitwits who fired some excellent people (me included).”

“Broke my heart because I loved the wonderful, passionate team that I’d assembled, and now, a few years later, the grandiose vision has collapsed, and my team has scattered to other companies. Still, love and miss that team and sad to see the destruction his hubris brought upon those fine people.”
