So says &lt;i&gt;Time&lt;/i&gt; magazine, assessing Moynihan&#39;s first three months as chief executive officer of Bank of America Corporation.&lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;embeddedObject&quot; src=&quot;http://content.screencast.com/users/dloos/folders/Jing/media/0046334b-2aea-4145-a91d-7281ef7e2375/00000037.png&quot; width=&quot;108&quot; height=&quot;157&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;Brian&quot; moynihan&quot;=&quot;&quot; align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;An analyst quoted in the piece says the successor to everybody&#39;s favorite executive punching bag, Kenny Lewis, is &quot;coming out strong&quot; and &quot;extraordinarily impressive,&quot; while an Obama administration official who&#39;s worked with Moynihan in Washington says he&#39;s a &quot;breath of fresh air&quot; compared to Kenny. &lt;p&gt;To boot, one of Moynihan&#39;s most senior underlings, Todd Kaplan, a former EVP at Merrill, says his chief is doing a bang up job.  It used to be &quot;chaotic around here&quot; but &quot;now the place feels like Merrill did in the 1990s,&quot; says Kaplan. Meaning that folks are making bank like you read about in Oliver Stone scripts and expensing everything from their dry cleaning bills to kids&#39; private school tuitions? No, says Kaplan, I mean &quot;there&#39;s none of the infighting. It&#39;s terrific.&quot;&lt;p&gt;This terrific-ness is no small feat, considering that Brian inherited quite a mess from Lewis, taking over while the Merrill Lynch acquisition was being examined and reexamined and Merrill executives were sprinting for the door, deciding they weren&#39;t going to wait to see their firm fall further. Virtually an unknown banker prior to Kenny&#39;s announced (forced) departure late last year, Moynihan took a job that you couldn&#39;t give away and has seemingly already made a not too shabby name for himself.&lt;p&gt;Well done, B.
