Did it have the desired effect of changing the policy or torpedoing the department hard enough she was replaced?
The latter. She was loathed by almost everyone. We had a new FTE position open and a student hire (higher ed) applied and got offered the position. He was a fuckin' rock star at this shit. Real personable and great at tech troubleshooting.
He had a 1-on-1 with his Team Lead, who was cut from the same cloth as the interim director, and asked him how he felt things were going in the department. He laid out thoughtful points of ways things could change to improve morale, didn't even mention the interim director or blame anyone for specifics. She didn't like this new hire telling her how things could be better and he got fired by the interim director. Since he was a new hire, he was on probation.
It was fucked. Dude had been a student worker longer than the interim had worked in her previous finance position! She probably would have fired me had I been on probation as well!
