I spent about 12 years as an employee in companies of various sizes in different industries. Purely anecdotally, I can tell you that sh*t rolls downhill. Bad people at the top make for unhappy teams and poor performance. The opposite is also true. The CEOs I respected most also inspired their teams to achieve the fastest growth.
- fredkbloggs 11y agoI've worked for many companies large and small, and many CEOs in that time. There's not a single one of them I respected, at the time or upon reflection. Would you mind sharing a few names for the rest of us to study?

- vonnik 11y agoi never worked for a startup i didn't like, which is lucky i suppose. i left futureadvisor earlier this year to found my own company, but if i hadn't felt that itch, i would have stayed working with bo lu and jon xu for many years. they built a highly competent and deeply considerate group of people around a very popular product. (as a pr guy, it was easy to pitch...) send me your email if you want more details: i'm at chris@skymind.io.
