WTF?? Englebert Humperdinck is Dave Moore's Replacement?

[anonymous]

Now if we can get Dave to take Doug with him to North Carolina and bring back Andy we would hit the trifecta!!!

Brian H has been around for a long time. The Andy ship has sailed, but if you can get Doug out of there, Brian is your best bet to bring a functional culture back to NNI.

Agree. *Almost* wish I stayed. He is a great guy!

Depends on who you ask. He supposedly left on his own, but I think we can see through that.

Yeah, Doug made a bad hire because Doug himself was a bad appointment. Dave’s announcement was damage control but we can see through it.

Get JK back.

He's too good for this place.

Here’s the truth of it: Doug’s days are numbered. Brian H is not one of Langa’s guys, and you can be sure was not his choice to replace Dave. When your boss starts hiring your direct reports for you, you can be certain that the end of your tenure is near. Maybe they’ll find a spot somewhere else for Langa, but I’d bet his Novo Nordisk days will be over within 12 months. His tenure has been a mess. I really didn’t think it could get much worse after Jesper, but I was mistaken. Doug has been an absolute failure.

I truly wish it would be sooner than later!!! What is going to happen to the terrible HS model then??? I know people disagree but we all know, how stupid it is to pay people to do the same job with a stupid tag on it! It should be zip codes and zip codes only!!

Totally agree. Really good guy, street smart and people smart.
That’s a good place to start from. Welcome Brian.

There is a 100% chance that Doug does not oversee the Oral Sema Launch.
That will be done by a majority of Danes or handpicked people that are QUALIFIED to lead such an opportunity.
Way too much for Doug.
My guess is Dave was told something similar, and was given some notification of the plan.
At least we don’t have to hear the awkward, forced conversations about “End of Year” evaluations on stage any longer between D&D!!!

You want the ACLs gone because of the promotion criteria!? That’s a stupid reason. I’m not saying they’re great or anything, but if all you’ve got to bitch about is promotion criteria, then you’re probably ok.

Promotion criteria were set globally. That said - Our US business is adrift with zero leadership.

please dont let the Danes decide on another leader of the US for the love of God!!!! They suck at it. They reap the profits from the US employees while their arrogance clouds their judgement. They will milk this cow until its dry. How about the US employees vote on a new leader. Not one that goes crying home because he didn't get the job he really wanted..not another little Jesper.. not another Doug.. their choices have been horrible. Blondine????? Really? Wow the politics get worse and the leaders get less competent with every hire

 

[anonymous]

Brian is a great choice. You will love him. Fair, smart, cool and kind. Wayyyyyy better than Dougie, by far!! I bet he’s Doug’s replacement within a year. About time Denmark is providing the US with a solid leader.

That’s the dumbest fucking comment I’ve ever read on this site. No one cares who you want to vote in as your boss. I think it’s time for you to leave.

Agreed. Big plus for us.

if we don’t launch this year it’s going to be a bloody mess. Insulin taking hard hits , 10 % cut by November if we don’t launch.

The insulin team is going to be cut regardless of the launch of oral. Look at that market – it’s all about managed-care coverage and rebates. No one really cares about minor clinical differences between brands. The days of promoting insulin are numbered…

The insulin and GLP1 markets are becoming so heavily commoditized that a sales force really isn’t needed. BIG changes are coming....
