Gordon Stein, CFO of CleanTech Lithium, explains why CTL acquired the 23 Laguna Verde licenses. Watch the video here.
But she’s already prioritised her diversity target! Under the “Woke “ capability.
Nice scorecard tick in the box. Like you , I am not filled with confidence: her record isn’t too impressive. I wait with apprehension to hear what her strategy will be, or is her role just to keep the CEO seat warm?
Can’t wait to see or hear her strategy. A few weeks in the role and already awarded 1.5 million shares. They’ve dropped since her recruitment. I’m sure I read she has a diversity target (to increase this area). I would rather she concentrate in turning the business into a more attractive investment. Jansen was a real waste of time in his tenure.
Just the same as Goodwin and McKillop then.
Totally agree. Seems her track record at Twila since 2019 has almost halved the share value. Makes you wonder if anyone credible wanted, what would have been a great profile position years ago. Was she first choice? If she’s been on the BT board you’d have thought there was some reference to her contribution. It indicates she agrees with the current strategy, so no real future changes, apart from gender. Adam Crozier hasn’t been a roaring success either.
Not my fault. You’d think he’d take some accountability considering his position. If he compared his performance to the share price since his tenure, he’d have been on a “poor performance tracker”, just like other employees.
I see Cathryn Ross of Thames water squirming at the MP Thames water select committee today. Another ex BT board member following Garfield. Watch her waffle and divert an apology. These talentless people seem to land jobs. She involved with Ofwat prior to BT. Three years in BT and she lands at Thames water. Coincidence, I don’t think.
I note Sharon White CEO of John Lewis (ex Ofcom) and Liv Garfield CEO Seven Trent water ( ex Openreach CEO) and managing businesses in crisis. Nothing changes. White was always anti BT and Garfield slashed engineering jobs, only for her replacement to ramp up for fibre rollout. Overpaid and always someone else to blame and both left previous roles in a state.
As a long serving Consumer employee, now retired, my recollection of Global was lack of management control. Global workers seemed oblivious to scorecard measures and expectations were based on bonus achievement irrespective of their performance. I can remember targets being changed to advantage some, in order to achieve year end goals. In my opinion Consumer were more robust in their approach and performance outcome was finalised on personal, unit, divisional and overall BT group results. Global folk had no understanding of this.
Finally, the old “Development centre” attendance was used as a tool to put pressure on those who were deemed surplus or out of favour and targeted to leave.
Comments welcome….
Considering the amount of remuneration he’s been paid, along with he share opinions, I don’t have any credible evidence of what value he’s been. Maybe he can give a statement, but there again he remained anonymous throughout his tenure.
Normally when the rumour mill commences shares rocket initially, level off and dependent on the interest, either go one way or another. BT has added approx £500m in terms of market capital today not going to exactly put of any predators! It’s like a reasonable days trading.
With the current crisis and companies laying off employees, closing down, losing millions and write downs of billions, you'd think a company that is still in healthy profit would have their shares rising. Only BT can achieve that! I still am confident Jansen will see us through it although could the take-over vultures be circling in the mist?
