Nah, while I always enjoy bumping heads with Fiend, he's absolutely right. Hate em or love em, they got to run their course and establish a solid precedent for the next round of CPM. The worst thing to do right now would be to pushing "reset" on leadership. If Bernanke just up and left halfway through QE1 or 2, it would have been a shitstorm. Salvageable, but a shitstorm regardless.

In fact, I fear that might already be realized if Larino is stepping down (or already has). I sincerely hope it's a false alarm as he's a smart guy and always understood the for what he wanted it to be, but if so I wish him all the best for both the him and the game.

How exactly do you think people learn how to lead or establish relationships? It takes time son; Trial and Error

I don't think this is the right method to learn to lead or establish relationships, though it is better than others.

Oh, and don't call me "son". My father passed away a few years ago (and while you have no way of knowing that), I think it's disrespectful to his memory. Thanks for understanding.

My father passed away a few years ago (and while you have no way of knowing that), I think it's disrespectful to his memory. Thanks for understanding. You're right, there was no way of knowing this. As for leadership, there is no way to teach it. Some people make great organizers or managers, but leaders are something utterly different. You have it or you don't. So perhaps we should rephrase it to "this is rather new frontier and a unique link that needs to be explored, recollected, and ultimately debriefed for the next phase of managers". interrupting this process is not only undesirable, but potentially harmful as there is little to no precedence for the new management to follow or retract from and a further example for the community that if we don't like something we can remove you. This attitude both freezes people making tough decisions and possibly eliminates the short-term growth of the CPM for the next year+. I don't think, no matter what they've done or haven't done, that this is the proper approach to a dilemma, although I understand the frustration. Rather, I might recommend doing exactly what should be going on: taking notes and forming an better platform and process by which to replace them this winter.
