Pros

Core group of managers and employees are great people to know and work with. There is a promoted and trained culture and leadership philosophy called Servant Leadership. Many great companies practice this. Really it is just good common sense leadership; out your people first.

Cons

The big issue is that the CEO is not a Servant Leader. He is the epitome of "do what I say, not what I do," and does not put his people first. This is especially true of how he treats his management team. Sadly I am sure he does not actually see this himself. And this is why the greatest servant leaders at Datron have resigned or been pushed out over the past two years, since the business Owner put himself back in the top seat. When the CEO feels threatened that people see someone other than he as whom they want to follow, he takes action to remove those people. More key people, including senior leaders, have said enough is enough and have resigned in recent months. These are the people who demonstrate true leadership, and hung on far too long trying to change things for the better.
