14 DAY TRIAL // Chris Sacca, one of Twitter’s biggest shareholders, announced in what looks like a foreboding blog post that he plans on adopting a more critical attitude towards the company he deeply "loves."
The venture investor who seems to be particularly keen on serving higher purposes, as he dedicates most of his time to charity, has seemingly developed an interest in the company’s welfare.
Not that his sudden change of direction would come as a total surprise if we were to take into consideration the fact that Twitter is going through some difficult times and investors are prone to experience a sense of uneasiness.
The lengthy post starts with him declaring his love for the company in which he had blindly invested all his money, to the point that he had become insolvent. However, his risky stock purchase proved to be highly lucrative, as the company surpassed expectations, making the 40-year-old a billionaire.
He is keen on helping the company get back on track
However, he declares that he is now ready to voice his opinions regarding the company he helped build up. In what to some could sound like a threat, he urges readers to keep their heads up for more upcoming confessions, "I am soon going to post a few things that I personally hope the Twitter team will accomplish. So stay tuned for a few more of my thoughts about Twitter."
His decision to become more open about the company he invested in follows a series of controversies regarding CEO Dick Costolo’s ability to be the leader Twitter needs, after the not very satisfying quarterly results and the quickly spreading conviction that he will not be able to cope with the slowing user growth.
Sacca made it clear that if he does indeed start badmouthing the company, it will only be because he wants to see some improvement ensuing from his well-intended feedback.
The "feedback" is now highly anticipated, and people are curious about what his opinions on the matter are.
Although he declared that he is no longer a part of Twitter's management team, people are looking forward to seeing what a man who is well acquainted with how things work within the company has to say about the situation the company is in and the current stance of investors.
