Sasan Goodarzi
Intuit’s Sasan Goodarzi makes the post-earnings rounds dressed like Rocky Balboa
Intuit quarterly results are in and they’re good enough where CEO Sasan Goodarzi fels confident enough to wear the most insane outfit we’ve seen in a long time in a CNBC interview. The most baffling part of the twelve minute interview is the fact that at no point did Jon Fortt ask “why the hell are you dressed like that?”
Intuit draws more attention to their CEO’s bad interview by demanding The Verge edit it
There’s a writeup on Tech Dirt which talks about how Intuit’s management lacks any understanding of the Streisand Effect when it attracted more attention to an interview with their CEO, Sasan Goodarzi, gave to The Verge. Intuit’s communications department turned what would have been a short, terse exchange in an otherwise cupcake interview into a much more interesting story by demanding The Verge remove or edit the podcast.
Everyone is focused on brief flare-up the host and CEO had around Intuit’s lobbying efforts, but no one is pointing out the utterly hilarious part of the exchange where he declares “I am Intuit!” Does Sasan have a history of megalomaniacal moments? This company might be worth following.
