Anyone else feel good about Mark Booth getting the can and a TAP guy taking over?

Quote




























You guys (OP) are all jerks. Do you even KNOW who the heck Alan is? He was Takeda before your snotty noses even ran. Jerk offs. Alan is a leader, Mark B is nothing. Big fat girl is right.
 












Mark Booth was a good guy, but he surounded himself with incompetant VPs. Many of those VPs will probably also be gone in the next few weeks. The VP of Marketing is the least competant of them all, he has cost the company millions in a failed Provigil copromote, and he is responsible for the high Actos and Amitiza goals, through promising forecasts he couldn't deliver. Ironically, he'll probably get to keep his job, maybe even get a promotion.
 




Takeda isn't sending a good message to it's political enemies by promoting a guy who was one of the key figures in an SEC investigation into defrauding medicare. Don't care if he was found "not guilty". He still carries a lot of baggage.

Unbelievable........If it wasn't for Alan, there would have been no Takeda, (he started the company) and you wouldn't have a job, or a company board on Cafe P to whine about.

No you are unbelievable. What has he done at TAP since his departure from here? Talk to people over there and they will tell you- next to nothing. Now I know he is a great guy with tremendous vision who started the ship here at Takeda but so friggin what- get over it as those days are long gone. Booth has overseen one of the fastest growing pharma cos ever and is springboarding his success to something better- careful what you wish for mr poster let's see how your man alan does with all this.

Obviously your sources are clueless. He righted a ship that TW gutted. 13 quarters in a row of making their financial objectives, 2 products with a submitted NDA, 180ed moral, brought sensibility back to goals, # of people, and TAP's direction. Couldn't be happier that AM will be in charge.

It sounds like you're only trying to convince yourself. No one is holding you back......don't let the door hit you on the way out!
 








Whoo hoo! A 10% increase would be great bc I'll be damned if I get paid less than a TAP rep who doesn't know how to sell against the competition because they talk about their love life instead of actually selling a medication. Actually, Takeda can pay me the same amount and I'll just start modeling my calls from the TAP selling model . . . on the couch.

We all should be happy Alan was able to get the TAP reps a 10% salary increase last year, maybe we can make as much base pay as our new TAP counterparts!

Alan has been a fantastic president. I work(ed) for TAP, and if you take a look on our message board, there isn't aperson saying 1 negative thing about Alan, but this board is full of negative comments about this guy Mark Booth. The scales weigh in the favor of Alan, I believe. I'm looking forward to still having a job, and still working for Alan. I think everyone at Takeda will see a tangible difference.
