The "Pure People Manager" is a Tech CEO Lie
"Pure people managers will not survive the AI age." Brian Chesky, on stage.
Two LIT hosts on the latest tech CEO declaration about AI eliminating jobs — and the rabbit hole they went down on Cloudflare and Coinbase layoffs that surfaced a 2021-hiring origin story Chesky didn't mention. AI isn't firing you. Naive 2021 headcount goal-setting is.
Plus: what "pure people manager" actually means in the real org chart, the gap tech CEOs lean on between "I don't understand this" and "this has no value," and what to do if this news cycle is making you nervous as a manager.
