So painful to read a fluffed up speech about standing together while firing 15% of workforce during a crisis. If you need to fire people, own it.

What made Google wave so great to you? (Even better than slack/Discord/Trello)?

Yes! But let's give the human coin a better name; how about calling it the Dollar? And while we're at it, we need to figure out a way how to make the exchange rate fluctuate less, so let's back it with some real world materials that we know are pretty stable in perceived value; how about gold? Oh, and for some tasks and jobs I'm pretty sure we will need bigger groups of people working together. These are more complex tasks/projects that sometimes require hundreds, maybe even thousands of people working in cohort. How about we call those groups startups, and corporations? But who will decide to start these groups when it is deemed necessary? Let's decide anyone can; and we name them founders. And because they will start these groups, they probably get to decide how many of the dollars which contributor in the group gets from customers right? Because who decides how these dollars get distributed among the group? Someone needs to do that right, at least until we get a sufficiently capable AI to determine qualitative value to the end user. And let's call these rights of distribution of these dollars stocks, like a kind of certificate to the future profits.

I'd rather he put his time into building and designing than rehearsing speeches.

Quit. Life's too short to spend it doing something you don't love.

This was the thing that got our team so annoyed that we decided to move away to a different tool (Clubhouse) which is much faster. Too bad, because Asana is quite an interesting and flexible tool, but the performance of Asana is just not acceptable.

I would like to argue that being a jerk even devalues the argument one is making. Because through being a jerk (which requires as much effort as bringing it in a more neutral way), one provides proof of subjective involvement. This subjective involvement detracts from your credibility as a source of reason.
