Item 5.02
Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

The independent members of the board of directors of The Management Network Group, Inc. (the "Company"), upon recommendation by the compensation committee, provided notice to Richard Nespola in a letter dated September 16, 2011 that the Employment Agreement dated as of January 5, 2004 between Mr. Nespola and the Company will not be renewed.  As of January 5, 2012, Mr. Nespola will be an at-will employee of the Company with the same title, position, duties, responsibilities and reporting structure that he had prior to that time. The independent directors believe this action better reflects the current status of the Company and should not adversely impact the Company's current leadership or direction.  Neither the compensation committee nor the independent directors have determined or recommended compensation for 2012 as of this time.
