    Yeah, shouting at your subordinates in public is utter bullshit.

        So two wrongs make a right? Or could this have been a civil private email instead? And if civil private conversations aren’t working, then it’s time to part ways.

            Acceptable, yes. But a good manager knows not to shine a spotlight on the mistakes of the team. There’s nothing to gain keeping it public that you wouldn’t also gain by keeping it private. But your team’s morale is kept high if you sing their praises instead of their shortcomings.

              I get what your saying, but i feel like the aggressively public development model means that more could be public here than i would accept on another team.
