VT MBB needs a VTChip like in VT softball.
Thanks for all you do for VT softball Chip.

I think it would require a full organization instead of just one man to...
...hype VT MBB.

Was thinking same BUT for WBB where a "little" extra makes a difference..
MBB seems to be headed towards an enterprise where another 100-500k does not move the needle.

Almost seems like that should be a full time position already employed
We could even give them a big title, like being a Chief. Maybe they could oversee the whole staff.

Should Arthur be a full time position too? The synergy might suggest you
can't really have one without the other.

As @VTChip might say, I believe you are missing 1 important person from
this request. After all he did state they are a team and we don't want to break up that team.

Hard to say on that. Even good and/or dedicated employees can only do so
much if leadership is poor. And it doesn't even take all of leadership being poor. Just a couple high level decision makers with the power to make bad choices can really kill things. A couple of years ago my company made a decision that was pushed by two C-level execs. Pretty much everyone else in the company thought it was a terrible idea but it didn't matter. The product was implemented and failed predictably. The two leaders left the company and we just paid several hundred thousand dollars to get out of the contract and revert to what we were doing previously. Point being there could be plenty of rank and file employees who disagree with how things are being run but are powerless to do anything about it.
