Leaders Don’t Fart: the Bartz Termination
September 9th, 2011 // 1:26 pm @ M.H. Nicholas
For Bartz, this stuff is symbolic of a person who does not understand that every word by a CEO of stature should be something to be considered, wise and thoughtful; but add emotion and profanity, insults and abrasion, and the respect is lost even if the substance exists.

Over-honesty, however, is as much (or more) a sickness as the sickness suffered by the pathological liar – although the liar may have more career upside potential. Being an “honest” person does not mean imposing a blunt truth, but rather conforming to the general conversational characteristics that embody conversational etiquette.
