I thought that sentence made a lot of sense. Isn't it natural for a new hire to ask an old bird how to work with Zuckerberg? As for framing him in the light of Steve Job's passing, I think it's just a coincidence. People have been talking a

It's the part where you ignore the negative feedback from Wall Street and newspapers. This type of change takes time and during the process, outsiders and even insiders will be unlikely to agree with you. Let the results do the talking. Par
