Telecom was in a no win storm and under constant pressure to split.Gattung held the regulators off for as long as possible. You guys just sound like old school women in power haters;)
lmao
and the reason they got pressured to split? monopolistic practices driving out all competition and stalling broadband growth in NZ as long as possible to keep customers on higher margin plans.
I was working there at the time
oh at least not forget this gem "confusion is our chief marketing tool"
You are confusing her intended message of the value of diversification, with her poor delivery of the message (off the cuff imo), against her own personal track record of destroying shareholder value, while responsible and accountable to shareholders.
I get the diversification message, it is just that she chose an ill-considered (and disrespectful imo) context of assigning blame to FBU leadership (Sir Ralph to be precise, who is accountable but not directly responsible) for having a man in the Chair (how could she possibly make that connection ... choose man = failure), and by extension caused the debacle at FBU, but the gall to suggest that a woman in the Chair would have had an alternate outcome!
What a twat she is, gender aside. Gattung had responsibility for one of the worst shareholder outcomes on record of any CEO of a listed company in New Zealand, full stop. She appears to be thoroughly conceited about that and no credibility whatsoever imho.

I’m just going to wait till the next downgrade for this share (beauty...... cough cough)
Theresa says she (or a woman) would not have left Fletcher’s get into the state it has
Gaynor says Norris hadn’t made any mistakes in his career so had not had the opportunity to learn from mistakes

Putting the two together maybe Theresa is right ....a failed woman leader such as Theresa (Sharetrader popular view) would have been good for Fletcher’s
