The product hub side of Comcast and Sky is riddled with management who don’t seem to understand how to translate business fundamentals into technical strategy.
Even after a massive restructure which took a year to complete, there’s still a lot of unnecessary engineering to build empires, a lot of SILO thinking, a lot of plain nepotism protecting people who should have gone. The only thing that’s really easy is losing faith and hope. Real change is essentially extinct.
The leadership does nothing to address these things. There’s a lot of knee je-k “strategy” and constantly changing priorities. The point of transformational change has entirely been missed by most of the key leaders. Nothing short of a change of leadership now will deliver real change in the organisation that’s sorely needed.
