Blood & Treasure: some clairvoyance
There is a real market in ex-leaders, people who’ve made genuine friends and contacts in their time at the top which can later be utilized at the service of major corporations and consultancies. I’m not so sure Mr T is in this category. It’s not clear to me that anyone’s going to pick up the phone to him in his capacity as a private citizen. It’s a bit like some executive who gets overpromoted, botches the job to the point of dismissal and then can’t find anything on his pay grade. The press release says he’s “decided to step down” but everyone in the know knows he’s a dud.

According to the Peter Principle, doesn’t everybody get overpromoted?
(Except me. In twenty years of work I’ve never been promoted once….)
