I know Jane was originally from the USA so (giving the benefit of the doubt), thought maybe she might have had contacts and might bring some use in that department, but it seems travel was not her forte either.
The cynical side of me thinks she wanted a part time CEO role on full time plus plus perks, and the Board, (probably after hearing from disgruntled management that were there long before her) have said enough is enough.
Other than the initial shock factor, I am not displeased with her moving on, I just hope the Board has learnt from this recruitment and will do a better job next time.
