Imagine This Hypothetical Situation…

Imagine you and your co-workers are allowed to choose a new person to be in charge of your huge corporation (or even a huge non-profit). The last person in charge, while highly respected and loved, was ill for months before they passed away keeping your organization in all sorts of turmoil and doubt during all that time. Before you even start narrowing the list down, how many of you think you would choose a person who is ten to fifteen years past retirement age?
