Say it Again For the People in the Back...

An interesting post on this webpage here a few days ago. It's worth posting for all to read. Thank you to the contributor:

"Ex-CEO Jim Blaine is an interesting case study in CEO retirement and succession planning. Truly fascinating. The psychology of Jim Blaine represents a strong desire to continue to maintain his stature as SECU’s leader, possibly much underestimated by the board. Blaine’s heroic view of himself and his mission is self-evident, and this leadership style can be characterized as one that places a strong sense of self-identity on both the status as a leader and the mission that it represents. Considering this psychology, it is not surprising to see the fight that is ensuing. Like many other large organizations that have had long-tenured CEOs and power struggles that result from succession planning, those ex-CEOs that fight the process must either be forced out or they maintain control until their death, in what often represents traumatic episodes for the CEO, exec leadership, board, and ultimately the organization as a whole. SECU has a critical decision to make regarding its desire for the influence and power of Jim Blaine. Some of the questions and issues brought up in his informal blog are worthy points of discussion, but the style and mannerisms are done in a way that subverts the leadership succession process—and at times the content is downright harsh and one-sided. For those that value respect one might question the integrity. However, it’s clear that if Jim Blaine does not approve of SECU leadership then he will seek to undermine them, in what appears to be for him an important extension of his life’s work and self-worth. Understanding this psychology will be important to assessing the path forward."

Time to Debunk!

 

But for real. Are you ok, Mr. Blaine? Lots of time spent conjuring up falsehoods and defaming regular people online. No one can be proud of that. 

(PSA for the folks in the dark corners: defamation AND slander are real things. And "anonymous" posting won't always save you. Remember that.)

Since there is no real place to debunk the falsehoods, this post will be used to play a game called: State a Lie and Clarify! 

What have you heard or read that has needs some setting straight? And, dissenters are welcome. We know it gets real exciting to be blinded by this Reality TV train wreck you're watching and sometimes we get caught up. (Bless your heart) 

But let's set the record straight...

You do know what happened when they drank the "Kool-aid"?????

Welcome. 

We've watched outright untruths day after day on the poorly designed, clipart disaster of a website that "Mr Blaine" lives to operate. Sadly, the man that once took the helm at a young age and did good things at SECU has embarrassingly trashed his legacy with a witch hunt of tired inaccuracies.

We're tired of your lies and feel sorry for the followers who sheepishly fall for your sad diatribe. Since you won't post anything on your site but your own slanderous commentary and cowardly "anonymous" contributions, we invite authentic commentators here. We won't be here for long - because you can't change crazy and, frankly, there is real work to be done over there.

We feel sorry for you. And your embarrassing website of one-sided inaccuracies screams pity for your loss of control. 

We are matching your energy with a poorly designed site to expose untruths.

We see you.

We will not stand for it.

PS - if you would have believed that marketing was important, you would have known the importance of securing ALL of your extensions for your "secujustasking" domains. Too late.
