Criticism, Cheerleading, and Negativity
december 2009 by josephholsten
Alex Payne on embracing your harsh critics:
"Cheerleaders aren’t in love with your business. They care about your business, but from an emotional distance. If you treat them wrong, they’ll disappear and find a newer, happier company to cheerlead at. Critics, conversely, won’t just weather the storm with you, they’ll show up on Monday with a plan for a better umbrella. Who do you want to work with?"
