All the managers are at conference with Gorman.  Has anyone heard anything?

Mar 1, 2006 7:00 pm

No, but they changed the name of the brokerage division to: “Morgan Stanley Global Wealth Management”. I guess a name change is all you get for $29 million.

Gorman has alluded to management changes.  Possibly restructure or downsize the regions.  Anything at this point is a guess.  We’ll find out more in the days to come.  The only sure thing is that there will be significant changes.

They ordered out Chinese for lunch.  Gorman had the Moo-Shu pork, and got the plum sauce all over his white shirt and tie.  The delivery guy described him as a “sh*tty tipper.”  That’s all I’ve got so far.

I heard some joke about chinese soup...can't remember the joke, but I think the soup was cream of Sum Yung Gai...

More news from the meeting.  My source tells me that Gorman used the mens room at the morning break, and allegedly returned to the meeting without washing his hands.  Yuck!  I don’t know for sure whether he went #1 or #2.

He probably wiped with a hundo…

Sooth, is that some sort of power potty move to complement the power lunch?

Apparently, Gorman was given a list of top producers in the firm to call and speak with individually.  He called one rep, asked how things were going and the rep told him “things were going great - I just handed in my resignation and I’m moving to another firm.”

That was right after Gorman discovered the CBS back lot where the moonlandings were faked, right?

So…any updates?

Mar 16, 2006 3:40 pm

We’ve been recruiting from MS for a long time now.  We’ve been getting a lot of “wait and see” from established producers.

HOWEVER, we’ve been getting a lot more “call me in X
months” recently.

The clock is ticking…


Mar 16, 2006 8:25 pm

ouch…changes on the news wire

Mar 16, 2006 8:48 pm

According to WSJ, Gorman will be eliminating all layers between himself and regional management.  Very bold move.  My hat’s off to him.
