This means reacting well to the news that an executive would like to move on.
What if the executive doesn't want to move on? I'm not talking about people who have vested and are ready to bolt, but those who have founded the business and want to grow it further ... but are now no longer wanted by the venture capitalists.
The post strikes me as something that a VC or appointed board member might show an inexperienced CEO or CTO before they get shown the door and are replaced by "professional management." Don't make a fuss, and accept our less-than-ideal severance terms. It's for the good of the company.
- sdoering 5y agoReading this and before that your sister comment from @thesausageking I can only agree. Looks like a self serving argument coming from a VC. Not that it would be good, if we had cultures, were processes and cultures were in place that handle such transitions well. Companies and employees would profit from good transition handling. But I am yet to see a company that does this in a half decent way.
