One thing is clear -- he definitely wasn't lying about the "culture of thrift." That much is evident in BFA.
Actually they kinda do. CEOs are people that get their ideas from other people....marketing. Most CEO's/Presidents (and I know a few) are not in their position because they are brilliant....they just knew the right people. I know CEos from 3 different hospitals....OMG. There guys are dumb as bricks but if you have the right degree and have sucked up to the right people well GG.
This is the heads of Blizz and Activision in a nutshell.....just sucked up and knew the right people.
I never said they were smart or better. But they do have a job. Their job literally involves DIRECTING the company. They approve all the projects, and their vision for the company is what is followed. Their decisions are ultimately carried out by the company. So, yes. Mobile came across Bobby's desk at some point. He looked at it and approved it. Do you really think they have no say over the games Blizzard makes?
What exactly do you think the CEO of a company does all day? Play with himself? They make the major decisions about what a company is going to do. Of course, the idea might have come from elsewhere. But he has to approve of it. He is responsible.
