He seems to me to have faded into the background, as though the country is on autopilot.

But I do believe that the lesson is clear: When you hire someone with the plan for on-the-job training, don't expect too much early on. Be particularly cautious if he comes to the job thinking he knows everything already; the result could be some fairly serious mistakes. But eventually, he'll figure out how to blunder his way through it until you can replace him with a serious player.
