Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

No Great Ideas Coming from the Top

I was not surprised by this statement on yesterday’s call. This begs the question, then WHY are those people sitting up there collecting checks? Alfonso also said there were too many people involved in the process. Too many people running reports and not enough execution. Again, why are they sitting there. None of them can do what we ask the front line to do today. Great leaders lead from the trenches not from the conference room.

Precursor to change. Acknowledge the sh*t show, then RIF away. Dan has shown that even the top brass is vulnerable.

Our direction is clear. Delight our customers. Grow revenue. Cut costs. Play to win. I am energized and excited to deliver on the game changing transformational plan our highly respected leaders paid consulting firms to give to us. Let’s go team!!!!

@OP delayering, RIFs, the upper echelons of Verizon's executives to streamline efficiency, ASAP!!

Yes, indeed, it was shameful (to include Vivek) , and an abundant waste of time to have highly-paid individuals sitting during the course of the meeting with no contributions to the ongoing mission.

And to have @Vivek sitting there, like fish out-of-water, without Shank's coat-tails.
