There’s an old joke about a large blue-chip organisation and its rotating country manager policy that goes something like this: a new country manager, appointed for three years, spends the first year changing everything his/her predecessor did, the second year making plans, and the third implementing a whole bunch of stuff that the next incumbent will come along and change.
