L' Affaire Yahoo !

Arun Sarin said to take up the Yahoo! CEO job. N-O W-A-Y. Arun just completed a long and ostensibly successful stint at Vodafone and left London and Vodafone at the right time. The telco and the industry are in perpetual cross roads. With the tech tsunami happening every day in the industry a longer terms for Arun at Vodafone was considered not so advisable. So the move.
But then Yahoo! is a sinking ship. No strategy. Low morale. And Google overshadowing Y! in all ares, technology, media buzz, revenues and stock price. After the Microsoft mess up Y! sure needs a CEO with a vision, a strategy and a team to implement it. With none of the 3 in hand why would Arun risk his reputation. It simply does not add up. He has the international skills & recognition and will be in no hurry for his next assignment. To entice his with money will be dumb.
So Yahoo ! Who is your next victim ?
