I agree and disagree with this Janos. Term limits might well mean somebody good gets forced to quit prematurely. On the other hand, they ensure there are opportunities to bring in somebody new => fresh approach, new ideas, etc, etc. A regular but prudent approach to leadership changes is generally a very healthy thing to do: just enough to stop things from getting stale but not stopping other talented people from getting a chance to run things.
