Senior Executive Management - Antiquated approach to leadership / people skills

Senior director, product management

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- job security - large profitable, stable organization

Cons

- Senior executive over reach into tactical work - well below their pay grades. - Senior executive culture of antiquated approach to people leadership - it can feel like you are in the 1950's when dealing with senior executives at CIBC. "I say jump - you say how high" approach. - Senior executives focus on the 'small things' in absence of the 'big things' or big strategic thinking.
