I honestly don't get why CEOs would bother worrying about this stuff. How can you make the big important decisions if you allow yourself to be distracted by mic

  In our startup it seemed to be a case of the CEO wanting to be "in charge". He could have gone for showing competence, gaining the respect and trust of engineering, and being a source of understanding and compassion to a group that was working crazy hours trying to meet impossible schedules. Instead he decided to beat us up. It did not go well. I was gone within a year, as were a number of other people. The company kept making crappy decisions, got bought for a song, and eventually my sweat equity (and real invested dollars) ended up as 17 shares of Oracle (fuck me, I hate that company).
