I don't think it's going to be helpful if we pre-judge new appointments.
My view is to give anyone coming in a chance to prove themselves and then make a judgement on their ability and suitability for the role.
I don't think it really matters too much if someone in this sort of job has experience of shooting, as long as they are good at listening and are interested in learning about the business they find themselves in.
It's often said that a good salesperson can sell anything, although it does help if they believe in the product or service they're selling.

The National Body General Discussion section is exactly that, a section for all of us to discuss the National Bodies and what they are up to.
Please bear in mind that this is an open forum and your posts can be read by all members. If you are in a position that can be compromised by what you are saying on here because someone takes offense and tells your colleagues or your sponsor and that in turn means you are being punished for your posts on here, think before you post!

I would hardly expect a warm welcome from the forum - but let's not alienate ourselves from another NRA staff member before they even get started....

This is the problem with forums, though. Quick to pass comment without emerging from behind the keyboard to face the real world.
We need to show how welcoming and open-minded we all are.
(even if we're all actually small-minded, angry, unfriendly gits)

Well,
I wish him all the success in the role - surely it can only be good for us all if he does well in the role?
Lets look forward to seeing things on the up!
