The announcement
COO officially annouce his leaving on Monday morning during the mangers' meeting; his simply announcement was made at the last part of the regular meeting; I tailed with a new organizational chart which I planned to implement on Aug. and encourge mangers to knock COO's door, sharing feeling in next 2 weeks.I don't treat it as a criss, so there's no such a criss management procedure to be followed; however, in order to soothe the mangers who worked with him for 4 years, I scheduled varies group meals and begin my frist lunch with CEP and CMP head; they were both recruited by COO some 3 years ago, the intimacy should be high, at the lunch, I don't feel any abnormal feeling coming from them, or maybe it's too early to flow out the chemistry of leaving. we had a shabu shabu lunch.
Dinner with another 2 directors, CRM head is mature and she is used to the executives come and go at multi-national corporation , since she worked for Citi Group before, she took the expatraite return home town a nature thing. NSB division head have some problem with him, the gesture of uncomfortable grows as he took up the head of the division, he imagined that the attitude of COO changed dramatically when we announced the new organization chart back in March. with his limited 3 months of leading one business unit, he changed also, aggrestive is not the proper word to describe what I observed follow his change; maybe the book " The story factor " provide the answer to the problem hit him " Telling the truth hurts, you must wrapped it up with a good story ", he might be right in many things. but to co-op in a big firm, 「Be Responsibe」 wasn't the only prinspal to obey, we don't see lot of thing the same last night when having dinner. but it will not bais what I value of him.
I must find a way to grow him, and to take care of 2 left alone expatraite in Taipei - this is another interesting task, the mulit-language communication increase the cost of transaction - the cost of knowing each other take time and it reflect to the slow down of decision making, slow down of the operation reaction, so we are kind of loosing the competitive power of SPEED, but, I have to put on their shoes and think how lonely they might be since there won't be a senior executive from their home land to share with them and to support them physically, how should I be the one ? or should I be the one?
I will not asked our colleage the rationale and decision making process when they worked with COO before, as I in-planted with the story of Coke succoser's story before - when checking the formal CEO's every thing and study for 3 months, the succesor gave up, he then decided to be like himself, be the one he familar and be the one he is comfortable to perform.
CEP director is good in pharaphsing, at lunch, when I send my greeting of " Is there anything worried you? may I grant my assistance ? " he bursted out with " Well, I am worried about you, worried that you will be too busy ", this is what CRM director tried to grap, the symonteneous responsing.
