Alarm bells for Poor Old Henry

• There is a possibility and more than a 50/50 probability that the federal government will legislate for four years of fixed terms. But I hope that does not come to pass because a three-year variable term makes it hard to oust mediocre governance. The present government is rinsing us out in Australia, so full of leftist policy and intended action to reduce us all to a sad social and economic situation.

• There is a possibility but very little probability that CEOs and others appointed to key organisational positions will consider decisions last made and learn from both historical successes and failures.

• There is a possibility and a very, very strong probability that leaders will boast of organisational success as the result of their efforts while not recognising or appreciating those within who have done the real work to ensure positive outcomes.
