It doesn’t make a difference if an exec quits your team or another gets fished by another. It simply means that those employees/execs see better opportunities outside and their current employer doesn’t posses that attraction. Same goes for Yahoo as its VP and GM Ad Technology Platform, Josh Jacobs was hired by Glam Media. He will join Glam as its senior Vice President of Advertising Products and Marketing. A pretty huge boost, following the 50% growth it has seen in its display revenue which is far greater given that competitors in the same have been on the negative side of the scale, Yahoo included which is still the leader in display ads.
