    Process Improvement/ Organizational Development...

    Was going to send detail, but your PM is not set up.

    Because all my knowledge of organizations and how they work are not applicable to picking the Powerball?

    But, you claimed to know the future because of your knowledge. Ergo...you are admitting your knowledge is limited....and not applicable beyond what you have actually done.

    What is the largest Organization you have ever Managed, Gip? Largest you've ever worked in?

    Trivia time? I was the President of the Board of Trustees for several years of a Public Service legal firm.

    You think football players and whatever you do are difficult to manage? Try managing lawyers (Union organized lawyers no less)

    Ergo? That is as twisted logic as you have ever posted. Spotting a dysfunctional Org Chart in the present has zero in common with predicting random numbers in the future.

    Out of curiosity though... How much day-today contact does a Board President have with the group of lawyers employed by the legal firm?

    No.....the Dicks are the ones who predict doom and gloom just because the way that the Browns are structuring. If all of you are so goddamned prescient, why are you here and not in Fiji on a beach after you have won multiple lotteries.

    How do I do that? I've sent and received PMs before, so not sure why it would be off.

  • Dunno... but we've traded PMs before. All I know is I go to your page and there is no PM option available.

    Not much.

    Point is: Whatever work experience you have is no basis for All y'all to criticize the manner in which the Browns are to be structured....or to claim for goddamn certainty that what they are doing will not work.

    Obviously you can bring questions up and debate the whole concept of what they are doing but for anyone to repeat the mantra:

    This won't work. I know it

    This won't work. I know it.

    This won't work. I know it.

    They are just being an asshat.

    I repeat:

    They are just being an asshat.

    But your conclusion was a simple: it can't work.....because I don't think it could work in the line I am in.

    First....I have no clue if it could work in your line or not.

    Second...you think it won't work for the Browns.....but you don't know.

    So....the real answer that I want to hear from any of you is:

    "It may or may not work. I don't really know".

    @the-gipper said:

    Well....apparently not.....because that would require us to speculate on the possibility that the new system wouldnt work and it would require us to discuss both sides of what they are doing(because thats what "debate" is).....and you dont seem to like that very much.

    Should we just lick Haslem or Shashis dick and call it a day?

    Doesnt sound like much of an answer to me.................(or interesting discussion ftm)....

    Lets see how it goes......"I dont know......I dont know......I dont know......I dont know......I dont know......I dont know"

    Meh....Im bored already.....

    As is often the case, Gip, you completely miss a point and then cling to your miss... so let me restate what I said.

    I spent a third of my career studying organizational dynamics and applying them to my employer. The application was specific, but the knowledge gained was universal because the dynamics are universal.

    There is no "one organization fits all" model, but the factors that determine the success or failure of any organization are universal. So far there are two major flaws in our new organization. That they are there may not guarantee failure, but they do decrease the chances of success.

  • With the shape the Browns are in right now you would think the New coach would want in writing that he needs the very least 3 full seasons to get this mess turned around. And Why is it when we do draft the qb of our future we have him ride the bench for a season while he is watching an over the hill never was and the very next year we bring in another loser to train the new qb, smh

  • has the OP yet been thoroughly divested of his original premise?

    No.....as what was said was not that.....the statements I am referring to are those who said flat out that they know that it cannot work. No ifs, ands or buts.

    Should we just lick Haslem or Shashis dick and call it a day?

    That is a personal choice between you and those 2 persons. You have to look to your own conscience for the answer to that.

    It may be boring....but it is, for now, the right ultimate answer.

    They get that in the form of a contract. They all get paid for the duration of it despite whether or not we relieve them of duty.

    And now you're conflating organizational dynamics with Sabermetrics... lmao...

    Believe whatever the fuck you want to believe, Gip... you usually do.

  • That is my point, they are all getting let go early, We need to let them finish their contract not have them half way thru and say NEXT

    I am not confusing a goddamn thing. But you clearly are.

    DePodestra was/is the leader/pioneer in what the fuck ever it is that he does. People say that is "analytics". I don't care what its called.

    But whatever IT is.....he is the acknowledged expert in it. And the owner of the Browns thought enough of him and what the fuck ever it is he does to hire him on.

    Maybe IT just doesn't fit into whatever pigeonhole you think it should be placed in.
