The Hunt for New Chief Executive

[Ford Fairlane]

Brett Duncanson on 5AA this morning said the new CE would be expected to have a strong corporate background and expertise in attracting new business support. Duncanson's said this was more important than a football background as their view is Peter Rohde does a good job of that side of the business.

I must admit I didn't know it was in our hands. I thought I heard when Mark's resignation was still a rumour that the AFL were putting someone in.

 

[Forzaport]

So we're aiming for another JJ then?

I thought this was going to be an SANFL appointment

 

[aneale]

doesn't really hose down the Keith Thomas rumours. He was DMG's Group Sales Director, basically getting Nova (and GM @ 5AA) into commercial players, attracting sponsorship, air-time etc.

he's been out of football long enough to not be on that radar, the game has passed him by and he's relly just a businessman now

 

[S.Patrol.G]

I'm still wait for an explanation as to why our current CEO is leaving.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

The press release from the PAFC co-signed by Haysman and Duncanson states there will be an exhaustive selection process in collaboration with the SANFL and AFL.

Mark will stay with the Club at least until the end of July. The Club will work with the SANFL and the AFL in an exhaustive search to find Port Adelaide’s next Chief Executive Officer.

Thank you all for your loyalty and support.

Yours truly,

Mark Haysman Brett Duncanson
Chief Executive Officer President

Then Keith Thomas will be chosen.

Now there's someone we could've gotten rid of. Haysman goes and Rhode stays? Not happy.

 

[PortBrillance]

Agreed.

oh wonderful wonderful

Kevin Foley's big chance for a career outside politics. If anyone would have business contacts he would.

 

[Portia]

Don't worry, if Keith Thomas doesn't get it, it means the Port side of the board has won and we'll appoint one of our failed assistant coaches to the job.

 

[tribey]

...we'll appoint one of our failed assistant coaches to the job.

"Garry has a mortgage = contacts in the banking sector. He drives a Ford = contacts in the automotive industry. He was audited in 1993 = extensive knowledge of taxation law."

The cue of people "head hunting" Kev is apparently fairly long.

Hopefully the queue is too.

 

[ploppy]

someone ring Richard Bransen or Rupert Murdoch, Bill Gates or Warren Buffett...outside chance for Donald Trump.

 

[ploppy]

or Im happy to do it..how hard could it be.

 

[Relativity]

Hopefully the queue is too.

Well I could have used "rolled up wine magazine" but figured pool cue was more apt.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Looks like there will be a caretaker CEO until the exhaustive selection process is complete. John Lyons might yet get his chance. And we know how Port love their caretakers ...

PORT Adelaide, the SANFL and the AFL are coming close to finalising a decision on an interim chief executive for Mark Haysman, who will leave Port Adelaide in four weeks. The footballing bodies do not expect to fill the position before Haysman leaves and do not want to add time pressure to the selection process.

Call me stupid but I think we need to call on our number 1 ticket holder to get involved in this.

 

[El_Scorcho]

Port announce new CEO: Teresa Palmer?

 

[Andre]

Port announce new CEO: Teresa Palmer?

I suppose she'd have contacts, but at least a lot of people would want to make contact with her

 

[Quadzilla]

Port announce new CEO: Teresa Palmer?

She could hire Dewie as our midfield coach?

 

[Seriously]

Call me stupid but I think we need to call on our number 1 ticket holder to get involved in this.

Stupid

 

[S.Patrol.G]

Stupid

He's referring to David Koch. It's not a stupid idea. But you knew that, right?

Right, I was being facetious

 

[Santos L Helper]

Someone needs to ask John Olsen and/or Leigh Whicker why Haysman is going.
