New EMI CEO May Have a Better Taste in Food than in Music.
Posted January 16, 2007 — in Music News
Analysts and Industry experts worry that Nicoli the new CEO of EMI won’t steer the mother ship to safety. Nicoli focused on food, with a stint at sweets group Rowntree Mackintosh and then almost 20 years at United Biscuits, eight of them as CEO. Nicoli’s expertise appears to be on the business side of EMI rather than in spotting new talent and managing artists.
this is not news with most ceo’s.besides he did listen to a radio once.
