What are they hiding? Where’s the accountability?
Just prior to the recent Council meeting in Raleigh, North Carolina, longtime Councilmember and former CEO G. Allen Bubolz wrote Art Thompson to ask for a full accounting of the Society’s condition, as a full year had transpired since the Society’s leadership and succession structure had been turned on its head.
A week later, Councilmember Bubolz received the flip reply posted below from the coup leader and now JBS CEO Art Thompson.
Not willing to accept the brush off docilely, Mr. Bubolz took Thompson politely but firmly to the woodshed with his two-page version of a “Correction Please!”
To date, Mr. Bubolz has never received the information he requested. Are things so bad that the new regime cannot tolerate serious scrutiny by its board of advisors?
Indeed, Mr. Bubolz must be wondering: What, under the Society’s current leadership, is left of the functions Mr. Welch envisioned for the Council? Are these men now merely window dressing, expected to sit at the head table of Council functions like penguins and bob their heads as dutiful yes-men?
Following is the exchange between Mr. Bubolz and Mr. Thompson.
