Corporate, with little public fanfare, handed the reins to Knowlton after Rob Gatto quit as CEO in September. Knowlton's title suggests that Corporate may still be hunting for a permanent CEO. The outcome is of considerable interest beyond PointRoll because the subsidiary has been an important part of GCI's digital portfolio.

Just promote one of the useless VPs or Directors from to the role. Why hire someone from outside Pointroll with actual experience and skills when no one else in charge seems to have any? Maybe Gannett is letting the VPs and Directors do the interviews and they can't find someone who is cool enough.
ReplyDeleteIt's a minor, wholly owned subsidiary. Position titles are meaningless. You could just as easily call the position general manager, or vice president — or eliminate it altogether.
ReplyDeleteRubel, are you or Victor interested in the job?
ReplyDeleteGannett is aggressively looking for a CEO for PointRoll. They are reaching out to many senior leaders in the Philadelphia and New York area. No one wants the job though - the company is beyond repair. It will continue to be run into the ground until there is nothing left.
