Work Post, February

I am a bit confused.

My manager talks with us regularly about what is happening, giving appropriate direction, etc. The President of our company says "we must get out of our comfort zone", what ever that means. The President is trying to do the Marketing, National Sales Manager's (3 of them), District Sales Manager's, and Finance (he's a Chemical Engineer with no financial training) jobs, and sending out motivational email telling us the sales performance and that the exchange rate is having an adverse effect on profits (like any of us can do anything about the exchange rate)

The big question to me is: Who is doing the President's job, while he is busy doing tasks his people are to do?

Who's doing the president's job? Obviously someone working out of her/his comfort zone. Just what the president ordered!

Did ya ask him if his job was available for someone else to do? Tell him U are ready to step out!
