"I need to change some of my behavior"



Linus Torvalds

Linus Torvalds from Linux sent a letter to his employees that read in part:

“I am not an emotionally empathetic kind of person and that probably doesn’t come as a big surprise to anybody. Least of all me. The fact that I then misread people and don’t realize (for years) how badly I’ve judged a situation and contributed to an unprofessional environment is not good.”

He added:

“The above is basically a long-winded way to get to the somewhat painful personal admission that hey, I need to change some of my behavior, and I want to apologize to the people that my personal behavior hurt and possibly drove away from kernel development entirely.”

Retention has all to do with how people are treated. Learn more at www.HRrenewal.com
