I agree. I'm not that familiar with this situation but seeing a CEO use swear words (idk what's the adult way to say this, I'm used to saying "bad words" to my kids) strikes me as incredibly unprofessional when it's in public, written communication. If the intent is genuine apology, that language does not make it more genuine. If, on the other hand, there's some element of sarcasm in it, then I'd question the need for such a statement in public in the first place.
- neilv 3y agoI think it also comes across as aggressive and snotty. Who is ever going to want to talk with that CEO, if he posts a Tweet like this as a followup? Or do business with him at all? If you're a prospective customer or partner, and this is what you've seen, are you going to bother researching, to find out whether this was a fluke or typical behavior? So, if it was a fluke, I'd think the best move is to make the very next messaging be an all-out effort to un-fudge it all up. We all have bad moments, and I'd like to think there's an imminent un-fudging.
