Since Sue is available, let's get her back as co-executive director, managing Brion Vibber as CTO. All three of them have been great in the past, it will save huge amounts of money on searches, and going back to proven roots will look great to donors. If they need additional support they should hire people to advise them.
Trying to replace oneself with someone better is a highly modest self-defeating behavior among top performing non-sociopaths. It needs to be recognized as modest. Did anyone have trouble filling out the Executive Director survey? I tried but haven't been able to figure out some of the questions yet. I need to scale the likert matrix in order to correctly represent my views, but there is no way to do that without making some of the answers on the individual items wrong. There has to be a better way to ask those same questions. I want a question like, "is not likely to hire someone involved in anticompetitive labor market abuse crimes." Best regards.
