In sales you can see many people of all races and genders have benefited from non merit based advancement at Novo. Look how many managers and directors we have that have never won a COE. If we expect managers and director to lead their teams to win shouldn't they have shown they can win a national COE at some point? Some may have won before coming to Novo and may have some COE's now but didn't when they were promoted. Some will say there is more to management than just wins, what exactly are those things?
