We could really do a much better job of gathering feedback, both solicited and unsolicited. I'm sensitive to the argument against layering on bureaucracy and complexity. As with public APIs, it is often more difficult to remove stuff later than it was to add it. Maybe we should focus first on the service of exit interviews, rather than on the creation of a new title? We should be able to do a decent job administering exit interviews with existing personnel. The option to expand -- or not -- will always be available later, should the initiative prove successful.
