    ^That is a ton of interesting stuff there, thanks. It makes sense.

    I am more amazed that he is still there, than I was before, having read that. I mean, this is the biography of an otherwise decent person (I am genuinely impressed by his self awareness) in completely the wrong job.

    Manning has, literally, no expertise in what he is doing, and has demonstrated no ability to grow. He learned nothing from watching an otherwise successful operation for 5 years.

    It is an MLS thing, the “Chris Klein” effect. Manning has mastered the art of making ownership comfortable, in these situations where the bosses spend 95% of their time elsewhere.
