When I learned last year that Scott O'Donnell had resigned his CEO post at Circus World (it sounded more like he'd been eased out), it did not make any sense at all, so I thought of the decks being cleared for a big name in the museum's history. One name that came to mind:
Parkinson.
I was half way there. The other half?
Julie.
Down the Covington Chute comes a press release from Circus World:
"Following a national recruitment, the Wisconsin Historical Society is pleased to welcome Julie Parkinson as the new site director for Circus World in Baraboo."
I wonder how really really hard a time they had in reaching this decision?
In my year end wrap, I had written about O'Donnell: "A
big big loss in my outsider opinion. A new CEO yet to be named. The
selection might tell us about the split. Watch for a big name insider."
Sadly, it all makes sense. Entitlement rules the day.
