Most of this article, except the cafeteria anecdote, isn't about Jobs, or about megalomaniac CEO's in general.
It's about utter failure of middle management, and how they can totally fuck both sides of the company.
The lesson here is not "don't be an asshole" (although you shouldn't), it's "don't hire ass-kissing assholes".
- webwright 13y agoDisagree. If you kick middle managers in the stomach every time they tell you something you don't want to hear, they stop being honest with you.
- rmrfrmrf 13y agoIn which case they should get fired. That's totally unacceptable behavior. If middle management is more concerned about saving face than delivering honest reports, it's their problem.
