What company was it, who was the CEO, and what's one specific thing one of the departments did?

Or are you just copy/pasting LinkedIn drivel?

Nissan, Ghosn, and I can't answer the third easily without delving back into it, but if I think of an answer, I'll edit this reply.

  • Never heard of Ghosn before - but you mean this guy? https://www.dmarge.com/cars/nissan-bankruptcy-ceo-carlos-gho...

    The guy who's a wanted fugitive in Japan and fled to Lebanon by shipping himself in a piano box?

    • Power and money got to his head, hard, but he used to be a really good manager, probably the best Michelin ever had, before he took the job at Renault (then Nissan). Not surprised to hear he was very successful there, as he had a really good reputation before his divorce (and this is baseless gossip, but I will still say I doubt any of his wrongdoings were before 2012. Too much power and no one to keep his ego checked down).

Ok, you got me. I laughed at this one. I never tire of reading the funniest LinkedIn drivel posted to meme sites or Twitter/X. This one is legendary funny to me: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/astuckey_nobody-linkedin-infl...
