Yeah, I highly doubt that any line employee is going to tell the CEO they did a bad job.

These happy clappy "systems" usually fail to take into account (almost biological) realities of how power structures work.

The story I was thinking of was where a director sent him the criticism, and he shared the criticism within the company. From this summary of a TED talk Dalio gave in 2017: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/employee-sent-hedge-fund-gian...

I'm not familiar with other companies that have the same reputation of using a system like this the same way Bridgewater does.

That's a cherry-picked example by a person promoting himself and his own system. Not really a useful data point, more an example of an aspirational goal.

Actually this happens all the time in firms using dot collector.

You have to remember you give real-time feedback during the meeting itself.

> happens all the time

Hmm how do the CEOs react to that? I imagine that the good ones are happy for feedback

The others though?

(I understand if you were exaggerating a bit, wrt "all the time")
