I think it boils down to leadership is really about managing relationships. This method is just too impersonal for most people, just like breaking off a romantic relationship via text is generally considered weak and frowned upon.
- johndubchak 5y agoWait, you're not supposed to break up over text? Since when?!?!?!
- recursive 5y agoI'm almost certain this is a joke. Right?
- johndubchak 5y agoYes. My apologies, I thought it seemed obvious.

- throwanem 5y agoI suspect it is rare, though I suppose not impossible, that anyone needs to break off 900 romantic relationships at once.
- bumby 5y agoI understand your point, but if there aren’t subordinate leaders below the CEO who can perform this function, I suspect they have organizational structure problems. I believe a good approach would be to have those first line leaders (who actually have that relationship built with their subordinates) break the bad news and then the CEO speak to everybody and own the decision.
