I think I can guess which is the more likely.
Excellent post.
Locally, in my DO and area, both reps are awesome, but it does make you wonder what's happening higher up at national level.
Every week we're seeing DOs walking out at local level and managers being shuffled.
Every week.
Culture change was supposedly a part of the Four Pillars wasn't it? So, why aren't Dave 'n' Terry all over this?
Local reps aren't paid but, in my experience, are passionate and are working men who care about their co-workers as if they are brothers. Perhaps this passion dilutes once you get paid, pull on a suit and attend paid for lunches.
Sooner or later, a beat dog bites.
