Jeff thought big and was a bull in the china shop. This allowed DV to get space and independence from BCG. So yes, deserves a lot of the credit for 0->1.

But aside from that, he pushed a bunch of dreams on clients and struggled to deliver on it. Those stories still make some BCG mdps and clients hesitant to partner with dv.

His other legacy is pushing a lot of average people up to MDP especially in NAMR. This was mainly to ensure he had ‘the votes’.

It’s taken a while to clean up both these messes and there’s still more work to do.

Lol. Agree on Michael.

Jeff was definitely value destructive to DV and BCG. We’re still facing the after effects of the vaporware he peddled and his pushing undeserving ‘yes men’ up to mdp, to simply retain power.

Gamma is the alternate story of where strong and good leadership continues to drive growth with less miss steps.

Maybe this is the socialist in me but shouldn’t Moderna and Pfizer waive their patent exclusivity for their Covid vaccines? Don’t we have a moral obligation for the world to vaccinate as many people as quickly as possible?

It blows my mind that many countries won’t be able to vaccinate most of their people until 2023. There should be access to vaccine generics
