Nuno Matos told Carnegie to "be quiet" after "combative" exchange in EXCO + All Nuno/Maile Reddit Rumours in one place
I’ve gathered all the stories floating around Reddit threads about Nuno Matos and Maile Carnegie:
- One rumour has Nuno telling Maile to “be quiet” and calling her an oxygen thief
- Nuno apparently asked his direct reports to bring back some homework on their departments. Everyone did… except Maile, who showed up with nothing and said she had other priorities. Nuno supposedly told her to bring both the overdue homework and the new one the next week. Not sure if she ever delivered, but she did retire soon after.
- That might be the source of the line going around that Nuno is “sick of excuses” and if someone says they’ll deliver by a certain date, they’d better stick to it.
- In a town hall (pre-Nuno days), staff asked Maile if she’d applied for the CEO role. She said no, because she didn’t think she was qualified.
- Their dynamic on ExCo has been described as “combative.”
- One redditor even tried to paint Maile as dimwitted and arrogant, with “no IQ and no EQ.”
Can you confirm any of these stories? Got more juicy tales about Nuno and Maile or other corporate clashes?
