> begging me to never say anything critical about his project in a Slack channel again Because he discourages critical feedback - it leads to 2 major problems: 1) He does not improve [because of lack of feedback]. 2) He discourages team around him from improving [because of lack of feedback]. Why not explain that to him (and then if he does not understand - fire him)?
