@sabi nodds in agreement the fact that they not only.refuse to cite sources but actually provide access to the raw dataset to review it is why only #TechIlliterate #Suits aka. #CxO's in big corporations believe #Gartner and other "#ResearchFirms" because they are as independent from corporations as the #plusXaward is from people wanting to pay fmto get awarded...

In fact, the #ConflictOfInterest of the 4,5 (#Accenture as a division of #ArthurAndersen survived #ENRON aka. The real #Ecorp / #EvilCorp.) #ConsultingFirms is too #sus for me.

• But then again I believe #EY should've died like ArthurAndersen when #wirecard collapsed as they've been their #Auditors for the longest and only a extraordinary #Audit by #KPMG did explode in the faces of WireCard shareholders and managers that weren't in on the #fraud.

Gartner is just a means to promote #GarbageIdeas and #GarbageTech to #TechIlliterates in a Board Meeting.
