I am not the most politic of men, so you'll forgive my bluntness.
Any title changes that include a change of pay as well as contract need to be run by me personally, as do any terminations. I imagine the Board has given you quite the budget, so if you need new hires, I trust your judgment.
Send me your plan when you have it. I'm sure I need not impress upon you the time limitations we're working under.
Some guidelines: No communication from Thomas, Inc. is to list any name associated with me but mine. Mr. Henry or anyone else is not to be referred to directly by name. You can put myself "and family" when necessary. I will not sit for any photoshoots and you are not to send a photographer at me.
