Big news! Piers Linney is a fool.
The least surprising news of the year. The only way to fail to make money from the cloud over the last 5 years is if you are incompetent. Having worked for him, I can confirm, Piers Linney is indeed incompetent and has no business being anywhere near a tech company. Just before I left Outsourcery 3 years ago, we had an all-company meeting. It was clear that sales were not what we had hoped and that costs were becoming a problem. Piers opened that meeting by telling us all about the new Maserati he had just bought. What an absolute arse.
