When I was much younger I spent two years trying to run an open company only to be “openly told” that several of my employees didn’t want to know and that it was too stressful for them to go through all of the tribulations.

Some people honestly don’t want to know what’s happening. They just want to do their jobs and get paid. And I came to the conclusion that it’s perfectly acceptable.

Still love the open company concept. But if you love and respect the people you work with you have to think pretty deeply about it and whether it’s actually of service to your employees, investors and team.
