The advice that stings is the advice you need to hear. Many folks are saying everyone from our kids to our SVPs and CEOs can’t take criticism anymore. It does seem to be more true, in my experience. VCs are reluctant to be critical of founders, even as they run out of money. VPs of Sales are reluctant to push reps missing quota, again and again. Customer success reps are defended, even if their top customers churn without there even having been a conversation.

ChatGPT kicked things off by giving a trippy response to a Redditor’s request for recommendations for recordings by the Bill Evans Trio.
