> Radical transparency, data-driven decisions for both people and company strategy, etc. are all ideals that I think ... I'm skeptical about BA's rosy portrayal of "radical transparency," let alone RT as an ideal. According to employee accounts, BA has plenty of skeletons and dirty laundry [0] These accounts talk to top secret areas, HR blow back, secret society themes, and selective use of "private" recordings to fit narratives. A good example's the recorded video of Dalio arguing with a female exec who resorts to crying, which would be selectively shown to demo BA's "direct confrontational culture" to new recruits. They stopped showing the surveillance--err, video.
