Just watched an interview on CNBC between Jim Cramer and Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan. The Intel CEO said he did a few things when he started -- he asked all the Intel employees for ideas to turn the company around and he talked to customers as well and asked for input. He said several customers actually lectured him about everything they were doing wrong. He said he focused on listening and staying humble and responding to all the employees and all the customers. He said they were all shocked that he actually listened and responded and was actually doing something about what they said. This seems like the exact opposite of what the current Avaya leadership has done. Intel seems to be finally back on the right track because of this approach by the new Intel CEO. Not really sure, but I suspect the opposite approach by Avaya leadership is probably not going to work out very well.

I am and it's funny how leadership thinks they can simply say "We've reset" and like magic all of history is erased and forgotten. Both employees and customers alike have been mislead and abused over and over through the years, past investments have been squandered and wiped out. Almost nothing in regards to trust and deceit business relations have been fruitful for anyone (except past leadership). You think the next big thing in technology or service offerings can replace Avaya's past actions. "Once burned, twice shy" should be Avaya's slogan, they earned that fair and square. All the above does show up in spreadsheets, between the lines.
You must not be an employee, past of present.
