Question #1
When the proven ‘Win Strategy’ playbook is insufficient to solve a challenge in a struggling division, does Parmentier demonstrate the strategic creativity to develop a new approach or does she default to a more rigorous execution of the existing system?
Question #2

Question #3
As a leader whose success is defined by executing a system during a period of strength, how will Parmentier react when faced with a severe market downturn that requires difficult, non-prescribed decisions that fall outside the established playbook?
