I walked passed this banner advert at Mobile World Congress 2013 every day for almost a week, and every day it bugged me even more.

In its bid to speak to vendors looking to sell into operators I can [sort of] get where Juniper Networks was going; but read it, deconstruct it…

• There’s a CFO in Delhi.
• His financial acumen is responsible for delivering value to shareholders, not to mention his responsibility for keeping thousands of employees in work.
• ..but guess what?
• He’s gambling all of this….pension funds, job security, the lot….on “services” that don’t exist.

Well that’s just dandy.
Is he also counting on revenue from the possible discovery of unicorns or other mythical beasts?

Sack him. Sack him now.
