Someone once said that if you want to predict how managers and administrators are likely to behave and perform at work, look at their motivational profiles and hierarchy of values, not just their talent or skill.
For years, West Indies Cricket Board’s (WICB) overriding motivation has been the need for power, control, recognition and self-preservation, hence its authoritarian style of leadership, its self-delusion and its inflated sense of worth. Instead of focusing on the growth, development, welfare and performance of its players, it is continually consumed by its power, needs and desires. This is a prescription for failure and disaster.
The Board rejected the recommendations of the Caricom Governance Review Panel months ago as impractical, unnecessary and intrusive. Since then nothing has changed. As expected, the Board reinforced its position at a recent WICB meeting in Jamaica.

The questions include why President of the WICB signed on the "Big Three" agreement even though it would guarantee the the WICB would loose some millions . more to come
