She barely started. give her a chance.The worse one -Anita's colossal hire mistake took place a couple of years ago w a DEI quota mandate over alot more qualified canidates, and that is not on VP Ashley or Linnea.
Wendy likewise was hired before Ashley & Linnea were in charge of Prep.
Sonya is both an Ashley & Linnea hire.
None have the skills to be 2nd line leader of leaders while Anita should not be even be a 1st line leader. She is the worse of the 3.
Sonya might have promised and time will tell.
She being Anita's BFF for 25yrs isn't promising.
Wendy lovely personality and nice but doesn't have leadership skills. She has task management skills which her previous roles in Payer were, but not leadership skills.
Cheerleading & pee wee sports stuff come across as Fake.
We all know now she doesn't have an eye for talent and can't hire as the FL RD is likely the worse in the entire company.
She is out of position as ED, needs to be back in a single contributor role.
You are a racist POS questioning my Ebonics, almost as bad as some of the talk show sessions with made up slang names.Uhm how did you graduate college or even high school if you (continuously, as it pops up in other posts) cannot distinguish between “worse” and “worst” ?
Once anyone says DEI quota it’s obvious they lack the range to discuss topics with objectivity.The worse one -Anita's colossal hire mistake took place a couple of years ago w a DEI quota mandate over alot more qualified canidates, and that is not on VP Ashley or Linnea.

Woke moran. Well if you can't motivate, you can't think strategically, can't inspire and don't have good decision making or people skills, then what would you call a Anita's hire?????Once anyone says DEI quota it’s obvious they lack the range to discuss topics with objectivity.
Go work at Lilly. They enjoy wm conservatives.
the ironyWoke moran.
LOL Are you making fun of a "moran" ???the irony

She is Definitely not qualified so that pretty much narrows down the reason. She was 100% DEI hire.
Sonya also a black female was hired on merit & qualifications. She is the best of the 3 and is the only one warranted to be ED.
LOL! And in here talking about merit. Can’t even spell.the irony
Summary on this topic
ASHLEY is Great- the real deal. Future President if not CEO of a company one day soon.
LINNEA is good. Still learning US market but great communicator & leader with good judgment. Basically a VP
****neither Ashley or Linnea hired Anita or Wendy as those 2 were before their new roles
-SONYA is too new to determine after 3 months but if like her friend of 20 yrs Anita whom got her the job over much better qualified internal canidate, then she will be Anita 2.0.
The First 90 days from national calls & launch meeting, seems to be a good 1st line leader of reps, but not leader of leaders (2nd line).
But already red flags. Heard she tells RDs misinformation & contradicts self often. Even ask questions she already knows to trick people-- that tactic is manipulative & can NOT Trust people like that.
-WENDY is extremely nice & engaging. Professionally too overly rah rah to seem genuine thus comes across as fake. She is obvious not a natural leader & it shows. Good at passing direction from the top.
Hiring is very suspect & questionable! So a poor eye for talent, & doesn't exhibit managerial courage to address some rougue RDs.
Basically a good talent who is out of role. She needs to be in Payer Channel or strategy space of Gilead. (Lord we sure need help there)
-ANITA is just an odd bird personally & professionally. She has poor communication & leadership skills.
Has a big entitlement chip on her shoulder as I ve seen her completely ignore reps and RDs as well as give silent treatment like a spoiled kid. She was a poor RD, worse of the 9, so why would she be a good ED?????
She is the weakest of the 3, and it is not even close. Scary she is the senior of the group with 3yrs in role. Says enough about leadership.
ok the fact that your lead sentence was that you have not posted in 15 years screams that you are FOS. LoserI haven’t looked at this board in at least 15 years, but someone alerted me to this thread. I’m disappointed to see Anita’s name disparaged here. She has been a great leader and deserves better. Whoever you are, please just stop. If the team building exercise got out of hand in your opinion, relax... We all know it was not meant to be a drag show. There were woman and men participating who were not part of the LGBTQ community and were just having fun. They tried… Maybe you are the problem, not them. I agree the meeting dumbed us all down a bit, but there were so many new people that I’m sure they had no choice. Gilead is a great company. They are not perfect, but they try. If you are not happy, then please go find something that makes you happy. I don’t agree with everything going on, but the intentions are good and I’m really excited to make a difference. I would hate to see Anita go (and FYI I’m not diverse). Please go find your purpose if this isn’t it!
Anita is great.. She really is. However this meeting was a huge miss along with a lot of the training. Did you feel empowered when you left? Someone should be held responsible for spending God knows how much money on a meeting that literally didn't accomplish anything aside from allowing the new teams to get to know each other better and interact a little more. Otherwise, money was squandered. That falls on more than just the ED's. This meeting is an example of how dumbed down the training has become at this company. It's embarrassing and humiliating.I haven’t looked at this board in at least 15 years, but someone alerted me to this thread. I’m disappointed to see Anita’s name disparaged here.

100% Correct Ashley & Linnea are the real deals. President levels in their future.Woke moran. Well if you can't motivate, you can't think strategically, can't inspire and don't have good decision making or people skills, then what would you call a Anita's hire?????
