In case you missed it, Anonymous recently posted: 'This is a repeat of the 1990s “Convenience Strategy”, Oak Brook fell on their face trying it back then. And that was when the corporation was staffed with experienced, knowledgeable people.'
We seldom comment about McDonald's mid-management people since a) they aren't in those jobs very long, b) I don't know them or what they actually do in their work.
But this lady is interesting in that she was hired to lead the development of new USA stores. She was hired in 2023, at approximately the same time Accelerating the Arches was announced. In other words, she was put in charge of accelerating McDonald's USA growth, despite having no time with the company.
The opposite of experienced and knowledgeable. Of course, she's now had two years to acquire 70 years of site location experience.

When this industry was virgin territory the real estate guys had an easy job. Now that we have to worry about impact on other mcd stores there is a much bigger chance of losing of your incremental profit margins and equity to a new store.
