Damned. I'd be tempted to write down in my resume "Company would've saved N million dollars and 5 years of their time had they listened to me" were it not such a double edged sword.

Better to write "managed critical scoping phase of $xx migration". Not your fault the company priorities later changed and it wasn't completed!

No one gets credit for "I told you so" - look at it this way, you didn't have the skill at the time to make the company listen to you.

How could you, in such a case?

They ignored the CTO on an issue that was 100% tech based. There was no winning, the board decided to ignore the person they hired to make that sort of decision for them.

I don't know, and maybe there was no solution. Just offering a different perspective.

[joshuahutt]

Some things seem inevitable. I've really run myself through the wringer trying to figure out "what could I have done to achieve a better outcome for everyone involved."

I guess success and failure are both group efforts.
