then it's really hard to run a successful business.

So being able to fire someone, and it's not even that firing someone is like evil.

People may perceive it that way, especially if they're the ones getting fired.

It's a necessity for a successful business, right?

a high percentage of CEOs may be narcissistic or sociopathic, but what percentage of, what is the median income of people who are narcissistic versus people who are not narcissistic?

Raj Shamani's Figuring Out
