How many VPs does a company really need?

Business Outlook

Pros

opportunity. with spinoff of med products/services on the horizon, there is hope that Mr. Schlotterback and the exec team will facilitate a reversal of fortunes that contributed to the recent rif. He did this with Alaris. There is hope for a replay. Many good ideas. more formal integration of the service organization input to development.

Cons

Too many VPs per sq ft of business. 6 VPs in 5 years over one leg of the R/D org, changing strategic direction each time. next gen product foundation laid 3 times by different groups in the R/D organization in this time frame. No apparent agreement between VPs to make use of work already done. 1000s of man months of work discarded. appears as lack of a unified plan from the top. The technicians had fun playing though.
