Steve hired him, hired him Just for what he did at Glaxo. He was a subject matter expert in how to get around those pesky regulatory requirements and was doing a good job till the incident. Don’t be fooled these guys all talk a good game while behind the scene they are instructing their bobble head VP’s ,directors, managers to walk the puppet walk. There is no ethics here . Just big guys pulling strings .
Where do they find these CEOs, they kcus
WSJ article points to his toying with two HQ ( DC and MN) and working from London created a hands off culture. Many things went wrong for such an expensive hire CEO. He hired way too many strange characters with no healthcare or relevant experience.
Witty destroyed GlaxoSmithKline and now UHG. Wrong hire from the start.
Witty got what $itty does! He will be in the case studies of what not to do. How can he not fire IT leadership after the Change/Capitol hill hearing fiasco?
The other thread is posting about UHC changing its name. Maybe it wants to start fresh after Twitty.
I've already forgotten him.
I liked him
Witty surrounded himself with Yes persons. Emperor didn’t have clothes on.
No lessons will be learned.
