He’ll go back to Pelvic. Seems like they are keeping the seat open for him. Declare him a hero and reward him with another OU president job.

I hope not. He literarily already destroyed this division once. We just started recovering from his prior bad decisions and absentee leadership. If he rejoins, I’ll have to find my way out.

Darrel would be in full time crisis management if that happened trying to keep the team in place. How many times do you have to fail before people start figuring it out?

What is the reason that failure is accepted at Medtronic for only some employees?

I have watched NN fail at each level. He’ll go into hiding for a bit-but whatever group he joins next just know your days are numbered. Chances of Medtronic actually making a move on him 0.0%. I’m inspired. Medtronic recovering faster after pandemic. Don’t look here-look over here. I’m guessing big acquisition next to cover up growth shortfall. Look Wall Street we are finally in orthopedics we bought smith & nephew! Who’s inner voice is this?

Ethics award. Doing the right thing for patients, bla bla bla

Then, a high profile “lessons learned” where he’ll dole out sage wisdom in such a way that zero blame falls to him. It was broken when he got it, it was the clinical data, Heartware team didn’t know what they were doing….

Then some kind of special project for Geoff to bide his time till the next OU role opens up. I dont think the’ll put him in Pelvic - that team is still pretty down on his failure there from before.

Are there any successes or just all failures.

Last time he failed he was immediately given Wallin Leadership Award to explain why he was given a GM role he was unqualified for. I’ve been watching him at Rice Creek for years and thinking about how to write a book around office politics in our current society. Why are some allowed to fail over and over and others are held accountable right away. There has to be some underlining factors contributing to this.

The dough guy would be rolling over in his grave.

I’m interested in how Medtronic will spin this? I feel pounds of bullshit are being whipped in a pot to have to explain where they move the president to next.

They will call him him a hero for having the courage to shut things down. Even though it’s his fault that fixes didn't get out to make it unnecessary. But hey ADN meetings don't start themselves.

I work in Framingham. He was hardly ever in the office. Couldn’t be bothered to engage with the field, customers, learn the business or the products. He didn’t even pretend to give a darn.

I don’t care what else he was doing. It doesn’t matter. What I care about is he didn’t care about my business.

The excuses and justification of why each business he leads fails will be fun to watch. Can you imagine being in the next group he goes to lead?

Remember when he gave that ridiculous speech “I know what you’ve heard about me (and businesses shutting down).” Inauthentic leader.

The only bonus to having NN in the chair is that because he cant be blamed, MCS was a bad buy and he did the best he could, the rest of us are able to use that same excuse…. No more firing the leaders for not getting the magic results. That doesnt’ help all the good people they walked out the door though.

Huh? Is this English? There doesn’t seem to be a point to this incoherent post. You should sit this one out.

If you worked in MCS you would know exactly what it means. Go troll some other team.

I do work at HeartWare. No one of substance calls it MCS. I’m trying to read what you wrote and it is incoherent. I’ll give you a redo. What is your point again? And yes NN was the best thing for HeartWare. I’m inspired by him as a leader as he knows the importance of ADN over business results.

This is so good. I'll pile on

-Patient focused--- he doesn't fix known issues for 5 years and then shuts down the business because being patient-focused is admitting you can't run a business and that the patients should buy STJ
-Listening --- listens to the doctors he meets with about how to improve (he doesn't meet with doctors)
-Strategic -- knows how to blame a warning letter for 3 years as reasons for lack of performance

“I ‘m not here to shut things down” - famous last words.
