Do we really want to select against people who aren't open to
discussion of their individual merits, even if that means selecting
against those who already have a job they want to keep?
This is additional support for the use of a (potentially mutual)
Co-director position, which would be an effective way to have a trial
period for any candidate. It doesn't have to be high-stakes up front,
and would be easy to revert in the case of bad fit or Board regret.
