I just understand things better if I get an example. @aj:;-) Are you worrying he would cancel if he would get aware to fast about the enormous amount of work and possible handicaps he is going to face?/;-)
Not at all, my opinion is that there's a lot to do and Jos needs to have some time to decide which objectives to give himself. Let's not give him the impossible tasks at the beginning ;)
Hmm, elsewhere (BP for instance) that is exactly what newly hired managers are presented with :-) Out of curiosity and as a community member, I'd like to understand who Joos reports to, and why he has to make up his own objectives? (when I hire people, I give them the objectives and I measure if they're met).
I report to marketing. As far as 'official' goals go, right now all I know is "make openSUSE rock", but that would be the same for all of you ;-) In the coming days I will discuss what formal things/jobs I have for openSUSE. I will most likely be an ambasador, as the title somehow makes ppl think I matter... Otherwise, I'll try to help out as all of you do, nothing special I suppose. I only have the advantage of doing this full-time, and not having any technical tasks. Personally, I generally like to focus on promo/getting the word out, communication between teams, and getting new people involved. So you will probably see me involved in those area's. cheers, Jos
