Dungey fine example. Big picture guy. Even roger admitted RD Was his own worst enemy at times and roger needed to snap him back to earth. And RD was receptive. And that’s why he was so successful with championships. Receptive, leadership and talent.
Appreciate your response as debates and opinions are always appreciated. I respect your France based opinion and statistics that I was aware of and based my short initial comment, which is my opinion.
My comment was based on working for a 100 year old private 1 bil American company that has trained me for 27 years in safety, quality, marketing, finance, employee performance, employee retention, employee termination, mentoring, profit/loss etc. I do have experience to support my opinion. Right or wrong.
I have worked under contract with Japanese, French, German, Austrian and Rednecks firms.
After 10 years MM does not meet my expectations for employee retention.
Enough said. Hope we have a 2021 season for all!

Then again if you don’t get it after 27 years, likely you never will......or your professional background has fuck all to do with moto?
Fuck old mate must have fired some dudes in his 27 years if that's not good enough for his performance level..
Unless of course he's completely full of shit.. But surely that couldn't be it
If it wasnt for Red Bull's huge sponsorship of KTM then they would of not being able to do what they have done thus far, it has allowed them to put very little money into race teams and give a lot of it to their R&D teams.
I won't list it all to not make a pissing contest but for instance I wrote or co wrote 4 master degree thesis in the last 5 years including 1 in HR, on talent management (attraction, motivation and retention of talents). It was a pretty nice one, the biggest meta analysis globally, compiling 10,5 millions employees interviews, thousands of ceos, chros, talent managers, talent recruiters, listing all best practices from more than 50 world class organizations, etc).
Also, I would add that Musquin has a pretty high ROI because the fact he didn't win a premier title (yet) while finishing multiple times on the podium is saving big bucks to his employer
Such a couple Elon Musk geniuses arguing on vital instead of saving the world, what a waste of time and talent.
Nah they're like 13 yo and the only master they've is in fortnite 🤣
Before he was kicked upstairs his job was to use the budget he was given to provide the most dialed in bike to each of his riders. Some racers can convey what they want/need done to be comfy and faster. Some can't. Either way, Roger and crew are there to get the machine in the sweet spot (not so easy considering the track conditions are so variable).
Secondary, but just as important is the personal interactions he has with the team. His primary mission is to provide results and in order to achieve optimal performance from his guys he has to "read" each one and feed them what they need...at that moment. ("Get the fuck out there and do your job" ....doesn't work).
There isn't time to mention the million other responsibilities he's had (all team managers for that matter).
By any measure, I'd say Roger DeCoster has been very successful. If he has been told to favor any of the three brands...he may not like it but I suspect he will do his job.
Have you ever been second best employee in your industry?
Marvin probably out performs you???
Are you inferring that every single employee that you have is cut loose (not retained) if they are not in the top 4-5% of their profession in the world? Or even the top 4-5% of their profession? I highly doubt that.

Pit Row
I've huge, nay, Massive respect for Joel, with his Titles and managing the Belgian MXDN Team, (and his coming to OZ to ride in the A4DE, on Husaberg and the, BMW ) but he's not the KTM Europe Motocross Team Manager. He certainly works within the Team, very much with various riders, but it's Dirk Greubel that's the Red Bull KTM Motocross Team Manager, in Europe. Then , of course, you have Claudio DeCarli, with his set up.
If anyone's Rogers 'boss', it's Pit Beirer. He's the 'boss' of all their racing. That's why you see him at pretty much every type of World Championship event KTM are participating in. A very busy man. Though I doubt Pit would 'boss' Roger around much. "The Man's" a deserved Legend of our sport.
Ultimately, it all comes under Stefan Pierer's control, at the very top. There's the Big Boss.
I have to say this, as it seems many believe Roger was The man behind the single cam 450 :
I saw one of, if not 2 of, the Rauchenecker brothers ( and other riders) racing the Single Cam EXC based engine, in Austrian, and other European races, long before Roger went to KTM USA. The KTM Factory / Engineers, had already set in motion the use of that engine, through the full line of KTMs' 450 and 511cc bikes. Roger certainly has had a fair bit to do with it's subsequent developments, on the US side, but he wasn't the creator of it.
