"interim replacement / transitional CEO is someone with a pedigree that, on the surface, seems even more management consulting / investor / revenue focused than Riccitiello was himself.
To be clear, I know essentially nothing about James M. Whitehurst other than what is readily publicly available (IBM / Red Hat, advisory roles, etc.)."
To me, it seems he has plenty experience with managing companies.
- cojo 3y agoI agree - this may be unclear phrasing on my part. What I meant in my original comment was, "wow, this seems like a hire that is only focused on finding someone with lots of experience managing, and not at all on the gaming industry / customer goodwill". So I think you're right - and I also think this shows how I misjudged how I originally thought a scenario like this would have played out.
