Pros
A strong sense of duty, deep identification with the products, distributors, and the teams under one’s responsibility, and a high degree of freedom enabled by years of trust. The work is goal‑oriented and allows autonomy in execution.
Cons
The presidency is influenced by a power circle that keeps it captivated, prioritizing results over the way they are achieved. There is significant personal time sacrifice, limited coordination across countries to move toward a unified direction, and a vice presidency that tries to be involved in everything yet ends up being effective in very little. High susceptibility to criticism often shuts down initiative and encourages people to simply go with the flow.
