@e9 You must be a director with no direct reports. It doesn’t take dedicated directors to solution business processes/workflows. AI can do that.
@ac I don't think that is a true statement. There are so many associate director level and director level positions that don't require direct reports. They are to focus more on the business, processes, and changing things around. From what I have seen
Oftentimes their reports got moved under a leader's friends to have more grounds to promote them.
Oftentimes their reports got moved out from under them because they weren't enough of a su-k-up.
