Omar Haque is a thinker. As the director of Havas Media and before that with Bubblegneration, Haque is a strategic adviser who helps investors, entrepreneurs, and firms experiment with, craft, and drive radical management, business model, and strategic innovation. His outsider view of the music industry – untethered by the opinions of someone who "knows" better is both refreshing and unsettling.
Fille-sharing is not to blame for the drop in profits but rather, says Hauck the music industry’s loss of credibility – for which the industry itself is to blame – subsequently led consumers to look for alternatives or perhaps, even to rebel. From there, Haque goes on to suggest solutions.
