I was wondering how Chris Licht was hired to be a CEO without any CEO experience. He was running Colbert Show, yes, it is a successful show, but being a CEO of an organization is a different ball game.
A team lead can't get a Software Engineering Manager interview at Amazon because of the lack of people management experience, here we have a guy with no experience running a company as a CEO, it is not a surprise he flopped.
>>> "It's a modern invention by the same sorts of people who assert that only white Americans had slaves, and other historical re-interpretations designed to extract concessions from rich westerners."
Are you serious? You think, Americans who believe chattel slavery in the US was one of the foremost abominations in human history is trying to extract monetary concessions from rich people? That is some seriously twisted thinking from your part.
The legacy of slavery and Jim Crow is unparalleled, legacy of that is hurting people even to this day, trying lessen the impact of slavery in the US is offensive.
I am perplexed by your arguments, you seem to be implying Churchill is not as bad Nazis because he didn't hate Indians as much. Well, lot of Indians disagree with your logic, at-least one prominent Indian Shashi Tharoor who isn't an extremist thinks Churchill is no better than the Nazis.
The argument Churchill is great, is the western version of history, a majority of of the world do not agree with that ridiculous assessment, because of the internet western version of history is increasingly getting challenged and I understand it is making you uncomfortable.
You are missing the point due to your biases, Churchill caused the death of millions, opposed the independence of India. He is not some garden variety racist who just held his offensive views while staying in his basement and did no harm to others.
I am offended when many people in the US consider Winston Churchill as a leadership icon. Indian MP, Shashi Tharoor's observation Churchill was no better than the Nazis is the correct one. Winston Churchill had an extremely derogatory attitude towards Indians even for his time. His policies killed millions of Indians. Indians need to re-write history from Indian perspective and tell the true story of Churchill, a genocidal racist who deserves to be in the trash can of history.
The main complaint here is Dalio claims to be transparent, he frequently broadcasts his company meetings in the interest of transparency. In this case the article is implying he wasn't transparent about his plan to extract billions from the business. There was no video call showing the negotiations, heck there was not even an email to the employees.
He kept employees in the dark, in short they are saying he is a hypocrite, and he is a fake social media influencer who says one thing in public and does the opposite in private.
I am a software engineer and I am a little worried seeing all these layoffs. No company will have 100% layoff, so it could be possible to weather this downturn? What could be the best strategy to get through this difficult period?
