Do nothing
Ans- Evan should tell the board to let Rob off the position of the CEO bcz he is the wrong
person to be leading because even though Rob generates profitable business ideas but he
has poor communication and social skills. Lets see his positives and negatives.
ROBS POSITIVE ASPECTS- why he should not be removed
1.
Rob has been a font of ideas. It was his idea to set up rooms where moms can breastfeed
their babies during breaks in the workday and put Webcams in classrooms so that parents
can "visit" their children from their desks. All this were seen as risks, but he did these and they
paid off. As a result of Rob's entrepreneurial vision and operational savvy, the company has
achieved profitable growth.

Rob wanted to the point answer- he was logical, specific in his requirements . He asked
Dolores immediately "What'd you think?" after the tour. When dolores said the teachers were
nice, he immediately asked what did you like about them. This shows that he talks to the
point.
Plan Ahead1.
Give Rob some time to amend himself, ask him to take emotional intelligence training.
See if he improves.

Evans should take on as new CEO, until they find a proper Candidate for CEO, who
has a mix of both financial as well as emotional knowledge.
