Well Lee Sears Didn’t Last Long, Did He?

Adrian J Cotterill, Editor-in-Chief

François de Gaspé Beaubien, founder, chairman and chief coaching officer at Zoom Media, managed to explain away the bloodbath quite nicely but you cannot help think that there was a phase of events, based around the momentous decision he took to hire Judy Kenny as US-UK President (who then went and hired all her friends) which in turn caused super smart (and even more importantly, super sales guy) Denis Roche out the door (Denis is of course currently interim CEO at Access Sports Media) and in the UK, a number of related factors caused Jill Lee to also leave a few months ago.

Well Jill’s replacement (in all but title perhaps), Lee Sears – who was hired as a trading partner (whatever that is), did not even last three months.

News just in that he left the business in the UK on Monday (Sears would have reported to Alex Peacock, managing director in the UK) so that’s probably national media sales gone in the UK then!
