This author's posts on marketing and PR are great. For some reason his management posts always rub me the wrong way. Agree that it's tough to share everything and avoid confusion/distraction (his M&A point) -- but the real footing of this post is that you shouldn't share certain things (runway & valuation) b/c employees can't handle them. CEO as superhuman grosses me out.
- yesimahuman 13y agoYea, CEO's with that attitude just plain suck to work for. It's one strategy that I think works in some cases but probably drives away the best people. In my experience I felt like I was being babied. No thanks.
- judk 13y agomarketing advice is how to manipulate the customer. PR advice is how to manipulate the public. Management advice is how to manipulate the staff. Maybe you should revisit your reaction to these three cases. What is the difference? Answer: only in the third case are you on the other side of the table.
