George Shaheen Gone From Webvan

from the that-didn't-take-long dept

Back in 1999 when Webvan stole George Shaheen away from Andersen Consulting (and no, despite "Accenture's" emails requesting me to go back and change history, he left Andersen Consulting - and not Accenture), we were a bit skeptical at Techdirt, but were willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. It took only a year and a half for everyone to realize he wasn't up for the job and out the door he goes. He still made out well, though, not as well as some predicted when he first joined Webvan. He never sold any of their stock when it was actually worth something. I wonder if he's now going to go around calling himself an "expert" in e-commerce.
