The results of a startup : are often 'misleading'..
2014 : 0 % maybe (irrelevant history)
kurien and pichai : do their manager leadership..
0->1% : page 3 : 'explosive growth'
1->2% : '100% increase in revenue'
2->4% : 'investment phase, hire all page 3 rejects'
4->8% : 'we need more 'solutions', more invest/expand'
9->9% in 9 years
oh : thats just writing on the wall.
: all of the 'leadership' is just 'polite' to act.
further thoughts...
polite : for cameras
savage : in intents/actions - not words.
