A point that has always made me scratch my head and i brought up in the "If you were CEO" thread, is the following.
- Why does the business side of a Rugby League club have any influence from the business side of the club?
The way I would imagine things are done, would be that the company is run by essentially autonomous parts with little bearing on each other.
Sure you need an executive, Vp's Directors etc of those departments and areas, but as a whole you let each area manage itself and report up the line.
I see many stories about CEO's being directly involved in football matters, player retention etc. I'd be lucky if my CEO ever said hello to me if we were the only two in a lift.
He has no idea essentially what I do. A CEO does not need to understand all of the parts of every area that make the whole, that is what his staff are for.
I would love to see a new era in Rugby League, where we have a CEO who's background is solely in business and concentrates and is concerned with only the Sea Eagles as a business
