Some of the coaches are influenced by board members - see 2012 year.

Re: EMC - What a joke!
Friends and family discount, known bad coaches have beat out great candidates for a number of reasons. Board control and or influence. Coach selection control or influence. Manipulation, lying, favours. Long lost friendships and people in higher circles. If you all really knew the amount of stuff in the closet or swept under the rug you would be shocked. Dream it up Because YES it has likely already happened. The favours one is probably the most creative and shocking.Guest wrote: ↑Fri Apr 12, 2024 8:44 amGotta wonder how they keep getting back inGuest wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2024 10:51 pmCoaches like this have no respect for the board- the board cant help.Guest wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2024 10:32 amI agreed with you, until your backhanded comment at the end, which seemed unnecessary.

Re: EMC - What a joke!
The board doesnt pick coaches. The coach mentor picks them. We have had mentors that were manipulated in the past but this year it was jw - he was not influenced- all the picks are his - the board had nothing to do with coach selection.Guest wrote: ↑Fri Apr 12, 2024 9:21 amFriends and family discount, known bad coaches have beat out great candidates for a number of reasons.
