Has there been a poorer demonstration in the history of Nike in leadership + integrity than that of the sports marketing function? CG cheats on his wife (the CMO, NHG) with his assistant. Nice move when both you and your wife work at Nike. Also classy thing to do with your direct report! Love that the assistant stayed at Nike for a little while in the function after CG got booted. JS departs Nike to work with the LA Olympic leader tied to JE. AM then comes in and things continue to get worse. What gives? Anyone following this?

So embarrassing to the people involved and the brand
This is a hallmark channel drama movie for sure
Nike's history of C-Suite adultery with those that report to the Executive, and almost always in the late70's and early 80's, with both participants' being married.
It was ignored, "consenting adults", we work hard here....be cool.
I was cool, I simply felt the liability, and potential for black mail, and spousal lawsuits should be understood.
It was a legacy practice that I observed in the many lawsuits by females at Nike that were filed in public.
OMG spill the tea
