How to Reclaim Your Cloud Strategy from Big Consulting

How to Reclaim Your Cloud Strategy from Big Consulting

For years, large consulting firms have been at the forefront of enterprise cloud transformations—yet, as David Linthicum reveals, this has often led to more setbacks than successes. Drawing from his experience as a former Chief Cloud Strategy Officer at Deloitte, owner of two consulting firms, and cloud project auditor, David exposes the hidden dangers lurking in big consulting engagements. Too often, embedded consultancies prioritize partnerships and kickbacks with major cloud providers over your actual business outcomes, locking organizations into opaque contracts, secretive processes, and proprietary "accelerators" designed to entrench their control.

David shares a blueprint for reclaiming your cloud strategy: demanding transparency about vendor partnerships, tying consultant payments directly to tangible business value, insisting on knowledge transfer, and ending procurements that increase dependency on outside firms. He stresses the urgent need to review existing contracts, halt new engagements that undermine your leverage, and set metrics that ensure your cloud investment delivers real results. This video empowers leaders to take back ownership, ensure true business alignment, and build in-house cloud competency. If you're tired of seeing more harm than good from large consulting engagements, this is your call to action.
