A Bold Prediction

StefanL, 10.09.09, 07:34

The tinytalk staff has agreed to the unanimous will to risk a bold prediction in the field of management, so called human ressources and recruiting.

The Prediction

Allthough at the start and in the short run it seems to have been a case of near ideal recruiting, hiring Eric Schmidt of Sun, Java, Novell, and anti-Microsoft fame as Google's CEO, in the middle run it will turn out to rather have been quite a mistake. Take your time and watch Mr. Schmidt talk to Charlie Rose.


Hi, hi, that was what used to be the Google Videoplayer before they switched everything to newly bought YouTube.

The Reasoning

A 2006 and a 2007 deal and their public relations which are pretty smart so far will overreach rational goals so much it will break Google's ascendency quite a lost faster than anyone thinks now and also faster than the respective paths of former contenders International Business Machines Corporation (1955 - 1985), Apple Inc. (1977 - 1987, 1997 - 2007), Microsoft Corporation (1987 - 2007) suggest. Compare this to what Mr. Tolkien wrote about Saruman the White, chief wizard of Middle Earth and head of the White council: "But his cunning overreached his aim;"*

Messrs. Obama and Schmidt. White tie and shirt, working for the Lord.

Schmidt will have his role in this. The guy is just simply too smart. The American obsession with feasability always turns against you when dribbling in the penalty area. And in the penalty area Google and their balls have been for at least 2 and a half years now. Well, they might get rid of him and recover still.

Praise or blame!
