Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot has reportedly apologised for earlier comments which were not at all well received, such as his reported instruction to staff that"the ball is in your court."
After Ubisoft's earlier press release about facing"major challenges" and the underperformance of some of its recent launches,to ask for them to be"as efficient and lean as possible" while giving their"full energy and commitment," ending by saying"the ball is in your court" when it comes to ensuring Ubisoft's future lineup arrives on time and is of high quality.
Guillemot apparently apologised, saying,"I heard your feedback and I’m sorry this was perceived that way... When saying ‘the ball is in your court’ to deliver our lineup on time and at the expected level of quality, I wanted to convey the idea that more than ever I need your talent and energy to make it happen. This is a collective journey that starts of course with myself and with the leadership team to create the conditions for all of us to succeed together.
Kotaku notes that some Ubisoft employees weren't satisfied with apparently evasive answers from executives such as chief financial officer Frederick Duguet and chief people officer Anika Grant about concerns such as"increased productivity" and the possibility of raises. What do you make of Guillemot's response, and Ubisoft's emphasis on focusing on its future pipeline with the games coming up in its next fiscal year? Let us know in the comments.
“Sorry that you feel you need an apology”
Sounds like a non apology
If only he said that to the staff he was accused of abusing.
