Just as a side issue, how worthless was Korn Ferry? I noticed a few sources buzzing online this morning about how awful they were, basically causing more problems than they solved. I have no way of knowing about that, but to the extent they were brought in to advise the administration and search committee about protocols and to serve as the conduit between the school and candidates, its hard not to conclude they massively dropped that ball. And that "AD Competencies"/flow chart thing they prepared that was released via FOIA request was the biggest joke of the whole process. Consulting firms are notorious for tossing up work product full of empty buzzwords and clichés when they have no insights or strategies to offer, hoping their clients won't be sophisticated enough to see through the ruse. That was one of the worst examples of that tactic I've ever seen. If I was Wilson and some smarty pants business school jerk dropped that garbage on my desk, I would be apoplectic. I guess $140,000 doesn't buy you access to their A team. We went with the Silver package; should have spent for the Platinum Plus.
