That was an expression. I didn’t mean it literally.

In a modern workplace treating people with decency and respect is a must. If you’re experiencing toxicity from “brilliant jerks” consider escalating to HR. Definitely the most under used resource at work. I think the dialogue around workplace and mental health has evolved significantly over the last 10 years.

I don’t condone Steve Jobs’ style in the 2020s moving forward. The world moved past it already and the “next Steve Jobs” I hope will recognize people’s need for psychological safety to work effectively.
