Have you ever been an NHL executive with the know how to make this statement?
I've managed in enough companies to know there is a hierarchy, you do not over step. It is bad for business and company moral.
This is such a bad take.
As mentioned, I have a lot of experience as the "boss" of a company of about 200 people. That's twice the size of an average NHL team.
Nothing happens in a company that size without everyone knowing about it within hours. If one of my managers came to me about a sexual assault against another employee, I can guarantee you everyone else knew.
Now, add to that the fact that nothing happened for three weeks, and you have a recipe for massive revolt within a company.
I have employees who get bent out of shape about someone taking an extra 15 minutes on a lunch break! I'm trying to imagine the outcry about someone being sexually assaulted.
Do you know what's bad for morale? Ignoring something like this because you're in the middle of a play-off run. If I had done that, my Board of Directors would have fired me in a heartbeat, and rightfully so. I can also guarantee that after some time has passed, no other company will pick me up as their COO, no matter how good my P&L was in the past.
Bad for morale!?!? What a ludicrous statement.....
Know what, 10 years ago you didn't. Today you do
Completely false........
.....maybe 30 years ago.
