Earlier in the statement Dragas wrote that “the board feels strongly and overwhelmingly that we need bold and proactive leadership on tackling the difficult issues that we face.” So we can derive from Dragas’ statements that Sullivan was not bold enough, fast enough, or “proactive” enough to guide a bucolic 193-year-old institution founded by a stocking-wearing guy who studied Greek and Latin for fun.
Has already been satirized in advance:

(pause) We at the network want a dog with attitude. He’s edgy, he’s “in your face.” You’ve heard the expression “let’s get busy”? Well, this is a dog who gets “biz-zay!” Consistently and thoroughly.KRUSTY
So he’s proactive, huh?EXECUTIVE
Oh, God, yes. We’re talking about a totally outrageous paradigm.MEYER
Excuse me, but “proactive” and “paradigm”? Aren’t these just buzzwords that dumb people use to sound important? Not that I’m accusing you of anything like that. I’m fired, aren’t I?MEYERS
Oh, yes.MEYERS
The rest of you writers start thinking up a name for this funky dog; I dunno, something along the line of say… Poochie, only more proactive.KRUSTY
Yeah!
Look, Thomas Jefferson was a dynamically strategic game-changer…on steroids! He would known that throwing Teresa Sullivan under the bus was a totally proactive new paradigm.
