I said, I said.
I take it as a compliment that during my tenure at OTR some of the people in my group have referred to me as Jack Welch – not due to my corporate compensation package but rather the diverse landscape I have had to manage – from heavy equiipment to online advertising – but what I see as the similarity between Jack and myself is the coinage of “the naked truth” whereby Welch suggests the internet created a world where there is no more corporate privacy while I say there is no more personal privacy (QED, my blog) – more to the point, this has always been my philosophy – wouldn’t you rather narrate your own script then have the gossip mongers invent it from half truths and innuendo? I advocate full disclosure – you will sleep better at night knowing you said that about yourself first.
