As Brian333 suggests above everyone’s watching and waiting and hoping this finally sees the total asshole off. 'So many PAs and support staff left due to behaviors' They all female by any chance?

Where all you have to do is talk a load of bollocks, ideally to people that know no better and are very easily impressed, and try not to get caught out. What you definitely don't ever need to do is produce anything tangible that would be of any actual use to anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as stated before most likely with a six figure handshake and generous pension to boot. If he is that incompetent its little wonder he rose through the rank's of the CS. 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two-lane Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 Lyle Wraxall is the CEO of the Digital Isle of Man Executive Agency. He did not rise through the ranks - he was recruited (or, as he would say, headhunted). He was recruited for his skills, which he has listed on his LinkedIn account: https://www.linkedin.com/in/wraxall/?originalSubdomain=im I will repeat them here, because this kind of thing brightens up my day: Specialties: Portfolio Management, Programme Management, Project Management, Consulting, Investment Banking, Global Banking and Capital Markets, Financial Services, Cost Management, Finance Transformation, Benefits Management, PMO, Business Management, Complex Government Projects, IT, Business Change, HMG Security, Enterprise Project Management Tools, IT-enabled Transformation, Application and Infrastructure Security Architecture, Identity and Access Management.

Definitely. Also worth pointing out the hotel isn’t a regulated business and so a lot of the AML/CFT stuff wouldn’t actually apply to them anyway. It would apply to the hotel’s bank but, as you say, the gambling company were a seemingly legitimate business building a flashy campus up the road. No reason for anyone to be suspicious. It’s also not the first gaming company to take over a guesthouse. One of the other ones took over a guesthouse just by 1886 for their staff, and that was even before Covid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well you can bluff your way along through the Private sector for only so long. Once you realise everyone might be about to see through your bullshit; that's when you get a Govt job 😁 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two-lane Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 His cv on LinkedIn is confusing (or interesting). It looks like he worked for Pcubed, a consultancy firm, for 12 years or so. During that time they contracted him out to a fair number of various firms, so that they could benefit from his extensive experience in whatever field. For instance, 6 months or so at Deutsche Bank. Presumably that is where is Speciality in Global Banking came from. These types of consultants surprise me. They tend to be of the younger type, so one wonders where they gained the many years of experience in a specific industry to such a level that they can tell experienced people what to do. He worked for NATS as well. They should send him down to the airport to sort out the ATC problems. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How it's possible to rack up any REAL meaningful experience is something that seems to run right the way through IOMG in recent years.

He’s another appointment that defies all logic. Edited August 30 by Thefella Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
