REPLACING ZARGHAMI WAS NOT AN OPTION: DAUMAN

摘要

When Nickelodeon's ratings plunged, replacing Cyma Zarghami as president "never crossed my mind," said Viacom CEO Philippe Dauman. "She's a tough-minded, excellent manager who lives and breathes her brand, and I was optimistic from the beginning that this was something we would work through," Dauman said. "Cyma was and is the right leader for Nickelodeon." Dauman was sure Zarghami was up to the challenge. "She's very competitive. She's a winner," he said. "In fact I told her at the time that going through this, while one doesn't feel very good right now, at the end it will make you and your organization much stronger than when you went into it, and that's proven to be true."
