I mean, I'd say that's 50/50 on ownership and on the org's leadership/bean.

Ownership hired the yes man. Ownership creates the environment where you "don't say the R word" and rewards yes-men.
Should we have a President (or whatever his title is) that can push back and is confident enough to say what needs to be done, of course. But maybe ownership could take a look in the mirror as well at the environment they create and whether they're actually allowing the people they hired to do the job..

Flames have been a mediocre organization for a longer time than Bean has been around.
