I'll try to avoid being overly negative here about Ms. Richie, but it's tough. Those of us that have worked in the corporate environment are familiar with her approach to business. It's all about feeling good, building the team and any other currently fashionable management theory. Big companies, like the government, are ideal environments for people that are long on theories and short on performance and results. That is all fine and good in that world. It won't work if you are responsible for saving the WNBA.

She has shown very little leadership or original thought since being handed this position.

Stern or whoever needs to get over their political correctness and get a serious, real world strategy with an experienced, inspired, credible leader capable of making it happen. Richie isn' it, that's for sure.
