Brad Surak: Profiles in Courage #1

Thought it might be fun to share with the world exactly how Brad Surak operates. There's a list of these so check back regularly.

Just today Brad Surak hosted an all hands meeting t update the product and engineer teams of the progress he has made. Unfortunately, Brad Surak could not make the meeting he specifically called for and instead pre-recorded a video which was light on anything of substance. Speculation among his own team is that he didn't want to be asked any difficult questions or made to look bad with his poor communication style.

Agreed. That meeting was completely lacking in substance, as usual. I don’t understand how anyone buys that b.s. Funny thing is that their are so many VP’s running around congratulating themselves for being above the little people, and they are nothing but empty suits.

Thankfully they had it streaming so you could let it run on one monitor and work on your resume on the other.

What do you expect from the ex COO of GE Digital. His MO is to draw a big enterprise salary while spouting platitudes and running the IoT/digital OT divisions into the ground, that's exactly what will happen with vantara. All the while he'll be networking and looking for exit options instead of working on anything strategic or technical for hitachi

Learned from the best over there at GED and is a black mark on any company that hires these "leaders" and trusts them to create anything of value
