When I was a child, yahoo was a household name in the tech ecosystem. It was so popular and powerful that in my place, anyone who was in tech was dubbed to be doing Yahoo. Then all of a sudden, google came and yahoo died a natural death. As of today, I don't know much about the continued existence of yahoo. There are lessons to learn from the fall of this giant business.
One reason why yahoo failed to be relevant in the modern IT era was its footdragging in the deal that would have made google part of yahoo. The deal didn't materialize because the board of yahoo Inc was not decisive. They dragged on until the price of yahoo increased to $3 billion. The lesson here is that as business people, we should be decisive in our business moves. There is no need to beat about the bush when you want to do something. A little procrastination has dragged yahoo to oblivion.
