Subject: The “Tax” Your CFO Can’t See (but Everyone Feels)
You know that moment when a new exec joins the team, everyone’s pumped, and then… three weeks later, projects stall, Slack threads multiply, and suddenly no one knows who’s doing what?
That’s not just growing pains. That’s what I call the Frustration Tax, and it’s quietly eating your company’s ROI.
💸 Gallup says it costs U.S. companies $360B a year in lost productivity. 💸 Deloitte pegs replacement costs for failed execs at 213% of salary. 💸 HBR reports 60% of execs flame out in 18 months — not from skill, but poor onboarding.
Ouch.
I break it all down (with solutions, not canned ones but ones that actually work) in my latest video:

If you know a CEO or board leader trying to figure out why their “rockstar hire” isn’t hitting their stride, forward this to them. You’ll be doing them (and their sanity) a massive favor.
Because frustration is expensive. And 100% avoidable.
