Jellico always looked to me like a manager who joins a new company or department and then immediately has to change something to justify his presence and “leave his mark”.

Correct. When taking command or transferring in as management to a new team - settle in before making any big changes. See how the machine runs and make corrections accordingly. You don’t need some hard ads power play forcing things through so everyone ends up pissy the moment you show up. Learn a few names, and understand your crew.
